"The 2010 Alteni di Brassica is cool and steely in the glass, with gorgeous precision and nuance. Crushed rocks, mint and white stone fruits lift from the glass in a precise, chiseled Sauvignon long on class. This is a gorgeous showing."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
