Description
The Wines of Piemonte by David Way Piemonte, a region in northwest Italy, is renowned for its iconic wines, particularly Barolo and Barbaresco. However, there is much more to discover beyond these flagship wines. With over 60 denominations and a diverse range of wine styles, Piemonte offers a wealth of opportunities for wine enthusiasts to explore. This book delves into the world of Piemontese wines, starting with an overview of the region's history, geography, and climate. It then introduces readers to the native varieties that make the distinctive wines in this region, including lesser-known grapes such as Brachetto, Freisa, and Grignolino. By examining the denominations themselves, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the region's wine production and discover new treasures to enjoy.
