Italian white wines have universal appeal as great food wines and enough terroir driven diversity to appeal to wine geeks as well. As a bonus, most of these whites are not nearly as expensive as Italian reds like Amarone, Barolo, Super-Tuscan, Brunello, etc., which can all cost a pretty penny. Plus many French and Californian whites from well-known appellations will be way more expensive too. Most Italian whites, like many of their reds, have great acidity that makes it great with all sorts of food. You can imagine yourself sitting somewhere along Italy’s 7,900 km of coastline and enjoying the local seafood with just about any Italian white. Many pasta dishes like Carbonara also benefit with that fresh acidity to cut through the fat. It’s also great with antipasti or on its own since the freshness is nice given the warm Mediterranean climate. Of course, you can recreate your Italy trip wherever you live any time of year with these wines.
