Varietal: Cortese

The Cortese white wine grape varietal has been cultivated for several hundred years in its native home of Piedmont, Italy. In particular, the southern part of this beautiful and mountainous region sees a large amount of Cortese grape production, as the grape grows most successfully in the warmer and drier parts of Piedmont, where the cold weather cannot adversely effect this delicate varietal by concentrating the natural acids within the fruit. Cortese grapes are renowned for their moderate acidity, and the fact that they produce delicate white wines of a medium body which are easy to drink, and beautifully aromatic. Most typically, they carry fresh and invigorating flavours of green fruits such as lime and greengage, meaning the wines made from Cortese are very crisp, and famously perfect for matching with seafood.

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.
