Same area as its administrative region; the boundary is the region's outline.
From the specification: Bianco, rosso and rosato may be dry or sometimes amabile; an 'amabile' type needs 11.5% vol total alcohol. Moscato ranges from abboccato to dolce. Liquoroso and rosato passito have no analytical limits of their own. The region may lower natural alcohol minima by 0.5% in poor years. Falanghina is spelt 'Falangina' in Art. 6.
