Italian Wines

Italy represents one of the richest tapestries of wine culture on earth. Home to more catalogued indigenous grape varieties than any other wine producing country, Italy has no shortage of regional and hyper-regional specialities.

In truth, an entire wine list can revolve around Italian wine, and many do, so here we focus on some important classics, but also explore some of Italy’s geographic periphery, exploring cultural diffusion across its borders. As in Friuli, Sicily, Valle d’Aoste, Alto Adige, Sardinia, and Pantelleria.
