Tenuta Amalia, now part of Cantina di Cesena’s vinicultural heritage, traces its noble origins to 1819 when Carolina of Brunswick, Queen of England, gifted a seventeenth‑century estate in the Marecchia valley to Bartolomeo Pergami, renaming it after her own middle name. The site, known as “La Rossa” for its ochre-hued farmhouses, blossomed into a cultured salon in the 1920s under Alessandra Drudi (Gea della Garisenda), wife of the hat‑maker Teresio Borsalino.
Today it feeds into the Cantina di Cesena, a Romagna cooperative founded in 1933 by growers, championing Sangiovese, Trebbiano and Albana, and embracing organic practices.
