Italy is the birthplace of most wines. The Romans brought these grapes vines out to Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, and populated the world with wines. Italy still produces and consumes a huge amount of wine, although not much gets out to the rest of the world. Most non-Italians only know of Chianti, the delicious red, or maybe Soave, the poetic white, or perhaps even Asti Spumanti, the sparkling dessert wine. Learn about them all!

What's
the first thing you think of when someone mentions Italy? Perhaps an intimate
and romantic ride in a gondola through the waters of Venice with a special
someone. Maybe it’s the quiet majesty of the Italian Alps rearing to meet the
clouds. It could be the grandeur of Rome—still as striking and awe-inspiring
today as it was in the time of the Caesars. Or maybe the small quaint villages
on Sicily or Sardinia call to you.
As diverse as the images of Italy are, so too, are her wines: rich, full-bodied
reds, crisp whites, both fruity and dry, sparkling champagnes and spumantes,
unique goldens and more. Whether you seek a wine to accompany a fine Italian
meal, a beverage to lighten the spirit and warm the heart, or just a quiet glass
of wine at the end of the day, Italy has a wine for you.
Italy has twenty different wine-making regions. To help you navigate this site,
these regions have been divided into four geographic areas:
Northern (which includes Valle d’Aosta, Piedmont, Liguria, Veneto,
Trentino-Alto Adige and Friuli-Venezia Giulia);
Central (which includes Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, Umbria, Marches, Latium
and Abruzzi);
Southern (which includes Molise, Campani, Apulia, Basilicata and Calabria);
and
The Islands (Sicily and Sardinia).
