Kingdom of Sardinia was the name given to the possessions of the house of Savoy in 1720. Besides Sardinia, the kingdom included Savoy (Savoie), Piedmont and Nice, plus Liguria, including Genoa. By 1861 the kingdom expanded to include almost all Italy, including Lombardy, Marche, Romagna, and Sicily. Nel Centro wines reflect the flavors of these regions.
