Review & Description
We invite you to explore and experience the breadth and depth of Italy's wines with our Guide to Italian Wine. For curious wine drinkers, this must-have guide will be the book you return to again and again to learn about Italy's grapes, regions, appellations, and vintages.
Equally valuable as a travel guide and wine shop companion, Approach Guides gives you what you need to know to learn about Italian wine.
For each region in Italy, we lay out the indigenous red and white grape varieties, the flavor profiles each variety typically exhibits, the denominations in which these grapes reach their highest expression, and vintage ratings. Since value is a focus, we highlight the regions where you are most likely to find quality wine at good prices. Rather than seek to tell you what specific bottle of wine to order, we give guidance as to how to approach ordering the most appropriate wine for the region.
Using our Italian Wine Guide
1. Learn about and choose wine with confidence. Our Approach Guide to Italian Wine uses a bullet-point based format that enables you to quickly search and reference our guide while in a store or restaurant. We mark all recommended grapes and regions with an asterisk (*) to help you make a quick, educated choice.
2. Complete your gastronomic experience. Pair this guide with our Approach Guide to the Regional Foods of Italy (also available on Amazon).
This guide has been written with the traveler in mind and is organized by region (so that when in a specific place like Venice or Rome, you can quickly and easily identify wines to try). As grape varieties can be the same across multiple regions, there is some repetition among regions. This is intentional and meant to provide a more useful guide for travelers.
We hope you enjoy what we believe is a totally unique travel guide to some of the best in Italian wines. Salute!
