ITALY
Italy is a wonderful patchwork quilt of a country with incredible regionality and local traditions. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the rich profusion of indigenous grape varieties that grace the slopes and plains of many of Italy's wine-producing regions. While wine production dates back centuries, it wasn't until relatively recently that a wave of producers set new benchmarks for fine Italian Wines. Whether you like a more modernist or traditionalist approach, international or indigenous varieties, the Italian wine scene has never been more exciting.

TASTING NOTES
Beautifully deep ruby colour, with a bouquet of plum, cherry and spice. Fruity, fresh and balanced, with a fair amount of grip on the backend, this is a delightful Dolcetto that more than holds its own. A charming and approachable introduction to the Giacosa line-up.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES
The nose on this Cannubi is welcomed by spicy aromas ripe fruit with hints of leather. On the palate, the strength and structure are mirrored in the deep, dark fruit: black cherries.
