Anzio WWII Food Wine & War
Anzio & Alban Hills: Where History Meets Wine
Walk in the footsteps of history where U.S. troops landed at Anzio in January 1944, and where the fierce battles to break the German Caesar Line played out across the towns of Anzio, Nettuno, Aprilia, Cisterna, Lanuvio, and Albano.
But there’s more to this land than war and remembrance. Today, these same hills are blanketed in vineyards, olive groves, and medieval towns that whisper of centuries past and offer some of Italy’s most authentic food and wine experiences.
As a historian and certified sommelier (FIS and WSET), I invite you to explore the rich flavors of this region — from the volcanic soils of the Colli Albani that give birth to crisp Frascati wines, to the coastal vineyards of Nettuno and Anzio, once cultivated by monks and now prized for their fresh, mineral whites and bold reds.
Taste, learn, and immerse yourself in a unique journey that blends WWII history with the joy of discovery: local winemakers, hidden cellars, family-run trattorias, and panoramic views over ancient battlefields and sunlit lakes.
If you're spending an extra day in the Rome area, let me take you off the beaten path and introduce you to the true soul of Lazio — through its stories, wines, and unforgettable food.
