Wine country guide
Buy Italian wine for food, friends and proper flavour.
Italy is built for drinking with food. From crisp Pinot Grigio and cheerful fizz to Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Primitivo and Amarone, it gives you bottles that can be simple, serious, rustic, polished and joyful.
Why Italy matters
Italy is a country of regions, recipes and grapes
Italian wine is wonderfully local. Labels often follow a place, grape or traditional style, so the range can look busy at first glance, but the drinking logic is simple: freshness, texture, acidity and food.
The best Italian shelf should have easy whites, generous reds, a bit of sparkle and at least one bottle that makes a bowl of pasta feel like a proper event.
Veneto
Prosecco, Pinot Grigio and Amarone
Veneto is one of Italy's most useful regions, from crisp whites and fizz to rich, powerful Amarone della Valpolicella.
Tuscany
Sangiovese with savoury bite
Tuscany is famous for Chianti and other Sangiovese-led reds with red cherry, herbs, acidity and a natural place at the dinner table.
Puglia and Sicily
Sunshine, value and ripe fruit
Southern Italy brings generous reds, ripe whites and excellent value, often with warm fruit, spice and an easy-going feel.
Alto Adige and Friuli
Clean whites and mountain freshness
Northern areas give precise, aromatic whites that work beautifully with seafood, salads and lighter dishes.
Emilia-Romagna and central Italy
Everyday bottles with food in mind
Across central Italy, the wines are practical, characterful and often ideal for sharing around a table.

Then and now
History in the glass, made useful today
Italy has grown wine for thousands of years, with regional traditions shaped by Greeks, Romans, monasteries, merchant cities and family farms.
Regional identity: Italian wine is usually about place and food culture, which is why the same grape can taste very different from one region to another.
Modern choice: Clean winemaking, organic farming and renewed interest in native grapes make Italy one of the most exciting everyday wine countries.
Food first: Tomato, olive oil, herbs, roast meat, seafood and cheese are built into the way many Italian wines taste.
