Italy
The Alpine regions of Italy are a treasure trove of ancient grape variety and delicious wines. Ignore at your peril
Valtellina is the home of steep vineyards and the most interesting Nebbiolo anywhere. Aosta has a diversity of varieties rarely seen on such a small territory. And of course Alto Adige is the home of Lagrein, Traminer, and so much more.
