"This was the best of all, an immense Mediterranean red, full-bodied, very elegant and unexpectedly agile. It has a luminous, ruby-garnet color and the attack of the aroma is spectacular. There are spicy notes of cardamom and vanilla followed by smoked accents and, at the end, scents of cassis and wild strawberry. The mouthfeel is composed, consistent, taut, elegant and almost aristocratic with tannins of infinite sweetness and a very long persistence."

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.
