Italian Wine Grapes

The native grapes behind Italy's wines, from Nebbiolo and Aglianico to Vermentino and Fiano, and the wines each one makes.

Grapes

Italy grows more native grape varieties than any other country, and most of its great wines are named for a place rather than the grape inside. This guide works the other way round. Each page explains one grape: where it grows, what it tastes like, and which wines are made from it, with links to those wines and their regions. Start with a region or a colour, search for a name you have seen on a label, or browse the full index below.
