中央イタリアの赤ワイン

Central Italy is a red wine wonderland with an impressive history. Wine cultivation dates all the way back to 8000 BC when Etruscans were settled in the area. It's a land of contrasts. Green hills, craggy coastlines, and mountain peaks all play host to vineyards which produce wines unique to their regions. Central Italian reds are often composed of Sangiovese, the most widely planted grape in Italy. Its wines are savory and fruity, with herbal and mineral complexity. It adores sunshine and is sensitive to terroir (the environmental factors that affect the taste of a wine), evolving depending on where it’s planted. Your Central Italian Red might be made according to a regions' strict rules, or an innovative take on a new technique or blend. It's because this large area is known for both classic flavors and wild experimentation, so have fun exploring both!
