Italian wines have often been a household favorite, held near and dear to the consumers that love drinking them. Italians love to eat and they love to drink good wine with every meal. They go hand in hand, and there is never one without the other. So naturally, Italians make their wines to retain vibrant acidity, which is the key to pairing food and wine. This relationship of food and wine is a way of life for them, and something they don’t take lightly. This passion is expressed through winemaking excellence, creating some of the most exquisite wines in the world, some that rival even the finest Burgundies and Bordeauxs.

Tuscany has received fame and widespread notoriety for their traditional age-worthy treasures, as well as their innovative wine-making styles presented in the form of Super Tuscans. One region that is lesser known, but just as worthy of attention is Piedmont, located in the northwest corner of Italy, at the foot of the Alps.
