"I'm a huge fan of Falesco's Ferentano although I am aware that this is a white wine that will not appeal to everyone. The 2012 Ferentano is a pure expression of the little-known Roscetto grape (with thick skins) that is native to southern Umbria and Lazio. The wine offers slightly oxidized aromas of dried peach and caramel followed by pine nut, stone fruit and honeydew melon. In the mouth, Ferentano presents soft and enduring creaminess. I think it's just terrific."

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.
