Collection: Italy

Italy is one of the most prominent wine-producing countries, known for its rich variety of indigenous grape varieties. Wine-making traditions in Italy are deep rooted with each region offering distinctive styles. In the north, regions like Piedmont and Veneto offer age worthy reds such as Barolo and Amarone, made from nebbiolo and corvina grapes, respectively. Tuscany, in central Italy, is popular for its sangiovese-based wines, including Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Southern Italy, particularly regions like Puglia and Sicily, excel in bold reds from grapes like primitivo and nero d'avola. Italy is also known for its sparkling wines, with Prosecco from the Veneto region and Franciacorta from Lombardy. White wines like pinot grigio from the northeast and the mineral-driven vermentino from Sardinia add to Italy’s diverse portfolio. The natural wine movement in Italy has grown significantly over the past few decades, emphasizing a return to traditional, hands-off winemaking methods with a focus on the land.
