Italian Regional Vines: A Journey through the Excellence of Wine
Italy boasts a unique winemaking heritage in the world, with over 500 native grape varieties distributed among its regions. Each geographical area expresses distinctive characteristics, influenced by climate and terroir. Among the main grape varieties we find Nebbiolo in Piedmont, used for Barolo and Barbaresco, Sangiovese in Tuscany, the heart of Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino, and Montepulciano in Abruzzo. In the South, Primitivo and Negroamaro stand out in Puglia, while in Sicily the protagonist is Nero d’Avola. White grape varieties also play a fundamental role: from Verdicchio from the Marche region to Fiano from Campania, up to the fragrant Moscato d’Asti.
