Italian Regions

dante wine list: the wine list at dante is omaha's only all list. we are also feature from each region of . each region has its own unique characteristics that make the wines & distinctly unique and different from any other region of italy. as you read through our selections, you will first have our table wines, followed by wines offered by the glass & bottle, then each region with the bottle sections after that. below is a little terminology to help you with your selections:

Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita or D.O.C.G. - highest quality level of wine in italy. wines produced are of the highest standards with quantiy & quality control. 74 D.O.C.G.'s exist currently.

Denominazione di Origine Controllata or D.O.C. - second highest standards in italian wine making. grapes & wines are made with standards of a high level, but not as high a level as the D.O.C.G. 333 D.O.C.'s exist currently.

Denominazione di Origine Protetta or D.O.P.- law allows Italian producers to continue to use these terms, but the EU officially considers both to be at the same level of Protected Designation of Origin or PDO—known in Italy as Denominazione di Origine Protetta or DOP. Therefore, the DOP list below contains all 407 D.O.C.'s and D.O.C.G.'s together

Indicazione Geografica Tipica or I.G.T. - wines made with non tradition grapes & methods. quality level is still high, but gives wine makers more leeway on wines that they produce.
