Welcome to the World of Italian Wine Regions
Lugana: Wine icon from Lake Garda
No question: Lugana wines from the northern Italian region of Lombardy are among the world's best-selling white wines. Germany may be the world import champion, but other countries can also benefit greatly economically from the strong image of the versatile white wine from Lake Garda. This is precisely why we are now offering you a few details that are not normally on your radar.
Lombardy: wine charms with class
With Lugana and Franciacorta, Lombardy wines can boast two Italian giants. But the northern Italian wine-growing region actually has a lot more to offer. And this is precisely what makes the Lombardy wines so interesting for the specialist wine trade worldwide. Here you can find bestsellers - and make real discoveries. What follows are the details.
Conegliano Valdobbiadene: Prosecco de luxe
Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore is generally regarded as the top league of Prosecco. However, this can be topped by three other Prosecco varieties that are also to be found in the DOCG. We will of course tell you what these are and what else you need to know about Conegliano Valdobbiadene and its various sparkling wines here.
Valpolicella: wines that enchant
It may be that Amarone is the big star among Valpolicella wines. But the wine-growing region in Veneto, which lies between Lake Garda and Verona in northern Italy, actually has other exciting growths to offer that are extremely interesting for the wine trade. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have the Amarone della Valpolicella as a driving force.
Italy-Venetia-Soave
Fine, fruity wines with a lively acidity and a slightly bitter finish - this is probably the best way to describe Soave wines. But that is only half the truth. The northern Italian wine-growing region is so diverse that the wines cannot be lumped together. And yet there is something for every taste. Literally!
Italy-Veneto
No question: Veneto is a wine-growing region full of wine contrasts. Wines suitable for the masses go hand in hand here with elaborately vinified growths such as Amarone della Valpolicella. And then there are the two great favorites, Prosecco and Lugana! But Veneto wines actually have much, much more to offer. That's why we're fanning out the wine region now.
Barolo: A Wine of Global Renown
Alongside Amarone della Valpolicella and Brunello di Montalcino, Barolo is the third great red wine of Italy. But what makes Barolo such a giant of the wine world? Why do these wines from Piedmont seem to be crisis-proof? And what different styles actually exist? You’ll find the answers to these and many more questions here.
