The Romagna Wines Consortium was founded in Faenza in 1962 when the most aggressive defenders of Romagna wines sat around a table and outlined the structure and tasks of a Consortium for the defense of typical wines; an organization that was formed in the October of that year to take on legally after a few weeks later the name of "Ente Tutela Vini di Romagna".
Confirming the contradictions and originality typical of the thought and character of Romagna’s people, the image of the "Passatore", a bandit and adventurer who in the mid nineteenth century run around the lands of Romagna was chosen as mark, and still today distinguishes the bottles of the wine Companies associated with the Consortium.
Since then, the Consortium has developed its activities by expanding the number of vinegrowers and the associated wineries, becoming protagonists of the winemaking increase of Romagna, which in recent years has reached levels of quality excellence.
And the quality of the wines, the balance of pricing, the promotion of the product and the territory are the most important objectives for the Board of Directors of the Consortium, supported in these activities by a technical committee and a Commission of enhancement and promotion.
