Varietal: Brachetto

The hilly and cool region of Piedmont in northern Italy has been home to wineries using Brachetto grapes for centuries. The Brachetto varietal grape has long been a popular grape in Italy and elsewhere in the world, as it is a particularly light bodied red wine varietal, prized for its gorgeous and pretty summery flavors of strawberries. Due to the light tannin content in the grapes' skins, Brachetto grapes produce silky smooth wines which are extremely drinkable, and easy to match with a range of mild food. The grapes are usually used in the production of still red wines, but it is not uncommon to find sparkling wines which predominantly make use of this fine varietal. Indeed, Brachetto grapes are used to make one of the finest red sparkling wines of Italy, often referred to as the 'red Moscato d'Asti' due to its similar features with this famous fizzy wine.

Region: Piedmont

n Italy, the region most closely associated with excellent quality red wines and characterful sparkling wines is Piedmont. This alpine region is located in the north-west of the country, and features beautiful foothills of the impressive mountain range which forms the nearby border between Italy, France and Switzerland. Wineries in Piedmont work with the Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and Barbera grapes which thrive in the warm, dry summers and cooler autumns, as well as the beautifully expressive Moscato grapes which are used for the sparkling Asti wines the region is famed for. For generations, these wineries have perfected the art of aging their red wines, and blending grape varietals to get the most out of each one, leading to a region known all over the world for the exceptional quality of its produce.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
