Best known in Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna
Italy's most important red grape. Sour cherry, tomato leaf, herbs and firm acidity, with tannins that love food. It is the grape behind Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and ranges from light and lively to deep and ageworthy.
Italy
The heel of Italy's boot: hot, sunny and flanked by two seas. Primitivo and Negroamaro rule, giving rich, ripe, generous reds with plenty of spice, notably from Manduria and the Salento peninsula. Bold flavours, warm hearts and outstanding value. Made for the barbecue.
Veneto, Italy
Pasqua is a Veneto producer with a creative streak. Love Wine stocks a wide range, from appassimento reds and whites in its Romeo & Juliet project to Valpolicella Ripasso, Pinot Grigio, a southern Italian Primitivo and a Fiano.
