"Deep ruby-red. Superripe, port-like aromas of hazelnut and raisin. Very sweet and rich on the palate, with enough acidity to give it good balance. A floral note adds flavor interest. Strong in alcohol yet harmonious, and accessible right now. Almost a dessert-style Amarone-or serve it with the cheese course. Finishes very long, with fine tannins."

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.
A prolific northern region known for Amarone della Valpolicella, made from dried grapes, as well as Soave and Prosecco. Its finest reds are rich, warming and concentrated.
