The Wine Front – If you’re in an Italian state of mind then we’re pretty much into ‘fill your boots’ territory here. This is the kind of ‘go to’ wine you’re always going to want to have on hand. It’s all licorice root, dark cherry, earthen/ferrous-like spice and coffee grounds, the acidity refreshing and the tannin authentically firm. It’s not earth-shattering but it’s damn good buying and drinking.

Wine Enthusiast – Vanilla and toasted coconut open the nose of this wine, before being joined by bright strawberry-cherry and stony underbrush. Strawberries and wild green watermelon notes perk up the palate, with more vanilla and also milk chocolate. Tannins are beginning to uncoil but acid remains present and accounted for.

James Suckling – A super-clean, fruity red with juicy blackcurrant and dark cherry character. Medium-bodied with very fine, fruit-coated tannins and a fresh finish.

Wine Enthusiast – Underbrush, scorched soil and cedar aromas along with whiffs of blue flowers and Mediterranean herbs form the nose. Austere and linear, the elegantly structured palate offers suggestions of dried cherry and licorice before a rusty nail close. Tight, fine-grained tannins provide support.

James Suckling – A bright and vibrant red with fresh red berries and some dry mineral notes. Medium body with a tight feel and firm tannins. Crisp finish. A good introduction to Etna Rosso as always.

James Suckling – Lovely purity of fruit here, especially when you consider the vintage, ranging from citrus to raspberries to iodine. The juicy and succulent tannins are just the right counterpoint to the rather tangy acidity, and this ends medium-chewy and grainy. Drink now.

World Wine – "Lustrous deep ruby. Bright sour-cherry nose with savoury, minerally notes and what smells like a note of oak. Fantastic balance between succulent fruit, lots of juicy acidity and gripping but ripe tannins. Tactile fireworks." Walter Spencer (jancisrobinson.com)

James Suckling – A firm and silky red with cherry, dried flower and orange peel aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a fresh and focused finish. Needs a little time to soften but I already enjoy the energy here.

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – The Fèlsina 2021 Chianti Classico Berardenga has a spicy or crunchy side that I often find with Sangiovese. There is a lot of fruit brightness here with cassis, red cherry, mineral, dried tobacco and grilled rosemary. This is an easy-drinking Tuscan red with the natural acidity and brightness to pair with a classic lasagna or eggplant parmigiana.

Italy's winemaking legacy spans thousands of years, with each region boasting its distinct characteristics and traditions. From the northern alpine terrains of Alto Adige to the southern volcanic soils of Campania, the country offers a vast palette of flavors and styles. One of Italy's most renowned wine regions, Tuscany, is home to the famed Sangiovese grape, the primary constituent of Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Meanwhile, Piedmont in the northwest is celebrated for its robust and age-worthy Barolos and Barbarescos, made from the Nebbiolo grape. Further south, the island of Sicily brings forth wines made from indigenous grapes like Nero d'Avola and Grillo, reflecting the island's rich history and multicultural influences. The diversity in Italy's wine offerings is not just about grape varieties but also the winemaking methods. While some producers adhere to age-old traditions, others embrace modern techniques, resulting in wines that are both innovative and reflective of their terroir. This harmonious blend of old and new, tradition and innovation, has solidified Italy's position as a wine powerhouse, offering bottles that resonate with both connoisseurs and novices.
Italy is the largest wine-producing country, making 30% more wine than the number two and three spots, Spain and France. Italy is also amongst the most prominent wine consumers and exporters. Italy is a synonym for wine, and Italian wine has no equal in terms of variety, quality and prestige. Italy is home to hundreds of unique wine grapes not found anywhere else, so Italian wine is hard to replicate. For the real deal, you must try what comes out of the country’s cellars, and that’s quite an adventure.   Italian wine can be red, white or rosé; dry, semi-sweet or dessert-like; still or bubbly. There’s an Italian wine for every palate, budget and occasion. Let’s talk about the most popular Italian wines and how to find the best wines for you.
The most famous wines in Italy vary depending on what you’re looking for. For age-worthy red wines, those from Piedmont, made with Nebbiolo, or the many expressions of Sangiovese, in Tuscany, are a great start. For crisp white wines, few regions are so dependable as Veneto, Friuli and the Trentino Alto Adige. Even warm southern Italy is the source of striking white and red wine.  The most popular Italian wines are often labelled as DOCG; they’re the best of the best. Of course, there is good wine at the DOC and IGT levels, and they’re rarely as pricey as DOCG wines. 
Italian wine can be classified by region, as all twenty regions in the country produce wine. Some regions, such as Tuscany, Piedmont and Sicily, have gained recognition for full-bodied red wines. Still, even these regions produce white wine.  Interestingly, Italian wine styles are often compatible with the food typical of their region. Wine and food are two sides of the same coin, and that’s particularly true for Italy.  For sparkling wine, look for Prosecco. For a nice red, Barolo, Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino are worthy of memorable occasions. And then we have all types of wine for everyday enjoyment, from wine from Sardinia to that made up on the foothills of the Alps. 
Most Italian wine is not expensive, as it is part of people's diet. Everyday wine in Italy is as good as any, but the most memorable wines, those from prestigious sites, can undoubtedly be expensive. Brunello di Montalcino, Barolo, Barbaresco, Amarone Della Valpolicella, Franciacorta and the famous Super Tuscans are among the best and most notorious Italian wines. They’re on the expensive side. Fair value wine comes from every Italian region, but Chianti, Valpolicella, Montepulciano d’Abruzzo and the wines coming from Sicily and Sardinia are also well priced and spectacular. 
The best Italian wines depend on what you need. Robust red wines, sparkling wines or dessert wines. The country has it all. To ensure you get the good stuff, source wine at the DOC and DOCG levels. However, wine at IGT levels is often good for casual get-togethers. To find the best Italian wines, explore our collection at World Wine. The best source of Italian wine in Australia.
