While it might be an overstatement to say that Italy is one vast vineyard, there can be no argument that wine is grown all over Italy. The best known regions are Tuscany and Piedmont. Tuscany is home to the “Super Tuscans,” made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and home also to Brunello di Montalcino, which is made from Sangiovese . Piedmont is home to Barolo, Barbaresco, Gattinara, Dolcetto and Barbera. The Nebbiolo grape rules supreme here. Last but not the least, Sicilian wines are good choice too. |
