Wine & Travel Italy – Assouline
Italy’s wines reflect its history and culture. Its winemaking traditions are richly nuanced, with thousands of small terroirs and vineyards whose varietals, appellations, and soils appear ever more colorfully varied the better you get to know them. Some of Italy’s wines are legendary, whether it is a twenty-year-old Trebbiano d’Abruzzo and its smoky minerality or a fifty-year-old Barolo or Brunello di Montalcino. Traveling the wine routes of Italy is never monotonous: each winegrowing region has its own flavors, its own light.
In the company of world-renowned sommelier Enrico Bernardo, immerse yourself in the author’s childhood home, in an enchanting voyage through the vineyards of Italy’s diverse wine regions. Within the pages of Wine & Travel Italy, you will find a tour of delightful experiences waiting at each stop, from iconic vintages to hidden treasures. Brace yourself for a sumptuous odyssey, where fine fining, luxurious stays, and the quest for the ultimate glass of wine unfold against the backdrop of Italy’s mesmerizing landscapes.
