The grapes
Croatina
Best known in Oltrepò Pavese, Colli Piacentini
A northern Italian red grape with deep colour and soft, fruity charm. Dark cherry, plum and a slightly bitter finish that works well with rich food. Often blended with Barbera, and sometimes made lightly sparkling in the Oltrepò Pavese.
Merlot
Best known in Bordeaux, Italy, Chile
Soft, round and approachable. Plum, black cherry and chocolate, with gentle tannins and a plush texture. It leads the blends of Bordeaux's Right Bank, including Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, and makes generous, easy-drinking reds all over the world.
Where it's from
Veneto
Italy
Home to Prosecco, Soave, Valpolicella and Amarone. The region produces vast quantities of wine — much of it ordinary, some of it extraordinary. Amarone della Valpolicella (dried grapes, intense, powerful) is one of Italy's truly great wines.
