Italy is the largest producer of wine worldwide. There are so many types of
Italian wines, it would take a connoisseur a lifetime to even begin to
experience all the country has to offer. Italy not only produces the most wine,
but also features the largest array of grape types, ranging from every color and
taste. Italian wines are a true gift to the palate.
Northwestern Italian
wines have many luscious options, and Piedmont is the most famous region. The
different types of wines here mirror the seasons--extreme boldness, and on the
other end of the spectrum, airy and crisp. The northeastern part of the country
may not produce a huge volume of wine, but the region of Veneto makes some of
the best Italian wines available. Southern Italy, including the island of
Sicily, is also a wine mecca, with six notable regions and a whole host of
grapes and flavors to choose from.
Types of
Italian Wines from Central Italy
The incredible
sun-kissed soil of central Italy hold the keys to some of the best wines in the
hemisphere. The six regions here produce almost one fourth of all the different
types of wines the country has to offer. From the massive, impressive Tuscany
reds to the heavenly whites from Umbria, this section of the country is awash
with idyllic, respected vineyards.
