Italy
Many of today's most sought after wines come from Italy. There really is something for everyone, with so much variety now to discover in almost every corner of Italy. There are hundreds of native grape varieties producing a fabulous range of whites, reds and sparkling wines.
There is so much fun to be had - Tuscany famous for its rich Chianti, Piedmont in the north east with its delicious Barbera grape, crisp and fresh Gavi and its famous Barbaresco and Barolo wines. The North East region of Veneto famed for its Pinot Grigio and sparkling Prosecco and luscious Valpolicella. Verdicchio from the Mache region or why not enjoy one of the big flavoured rustic reds from one of the southern regions of Puglia or Sicily - For the connoisseur or novice alike, Italy has it all!
