The great thing about Italian wines is that they are so Italian. This is because most wines are made from grape varieties that you only encounter in Italy. At Fantini, these include the sangiovese that grows all over Italy and regional varieties such as primitivo and montepulciano. What also makes Italian wines juicy are the stories that go with them. The wines from Abruzzo, for example, became famous because the Austrian princess Margaret and her husband, the Prince of Farnese, grew wine there with the help of the Fantini family. Their royal wines were served at all court parties in Europe. Fantini still makes classic regional wines, but with a modern, full-fruity twist.
