Touring the Wineries of Italy
The country of Italy has a distribution of wines that is unlike any other. The wide variety of choices found on Italian wine maps mean that we offer a week or a month touring wineries and grape-growing locations. We think you'll like the wine-tasting and the extra points of interest included in every one of our wine tours.
The Bigger Picture
The Italian wine map shows twenty distinctive regions. Each of the areas has special tastes and products that we think you'll enjoy finding out about. Although Italy doesn't cover a tremendous distance north to south, it has several climatic changes, thanks to the topography and the nearness to the marine waters.
Varietals
We show you where to find the white varieties and where the red varieties can be found. Each of the major regions on Italian wine maps has both white and red wines, but we'd like to show you how they are alike and how they are different. We can set up tours that support one region or one color of wine so that you can compare and contrast.
Food, Drink and History
When we say we will show you the high points of an Italian wine map, we mean what we say. It isn't just wine that you will find on our tours. We provide information about the history of the region. You get to visit restaurants that give you not only the taste of the region, but the music and color of the people who grow the grapes and produce the best wines.
We work with you to help you color in the Italian wine maps in any order you prefer. You can take a weekend and hit one region, or spend a week visiting several regions. Take your time and learn to savor the country and the people as you savor the wine they produce.
