This 'Italian Red Wines Six Pack’ covers regions from the north, via central to the south of Italy, allowing us to take you on a journey thru the country and express what climate, terroir and wine making traditions can do to produce beautiful approachable and quality wines. We start from the north and a cooler climate Kaltern Pinot Nero from Alto Adige, a town bordering Switzerland & Austria. A beautiful balanced wine, great fruit and a silky finish. The famous Speri winery just below in the Veneto region brings us a classic expression of the Corvina grape with their Valpolicella Classico Superior. Such a versatile wine with pasta, baked fish or even a good panino of cold cuts and cheese. Our journey moves across west to Piedmont and Mauro Guido. His Barbera del Monferrato Superiore gives a full flavour wine with great balance, perfect if grilled meats is on the menu. No journey in Italy is complete without visiting the Tuscany region and with Viticoltori Senesi Aretini Chianti Riserva we see the benefit of bottle ageing to give a matured complex look at the Sangiovese grape with lots of dried herb notes, red cherry flavours with a rustic finish bringing you to the famous tuscan hills in that moment. On our way south we stop in Abruzzo at Vigneti Radica for their Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. A long over looked wine making region for some, but always with great producers giving wonderful insights and visions into their wines. This red wine delivers great red fruit with well bodied, supple, balanced and persistent finish.  Puglia and the Salento region rounds up our trip. Leone de Castris is a high level producer in the area as well as hotelier with the conceptual Villa Donna Lisa wine hotel amongst the 12 wine estates it makes wine from. I love their Primitivo di Manduria for its deep red colour, plum black cherry aromas and full bodied velvet finish. A great balanced wine show casing the warm climate of the region, again think a pasta ragu or big steak to enjoy with it. Read More
