The wine region of Ticino started producing wine in the Roman era but only after 1906 with the introduction of Merlot did it begin to produce quality wine. Geographically the wine region is located in the south of Switzerland and includes the canton Ticino and the district of Moesa (Misox and Calanca valleys) in the Canton of the Grisons.
