An introductory guide to the most important Italian wines. Sometimes it is nice to discover something about the wine you are sipping with ease and pleasure. However, talking about Italian wine is not always easy, and tackling grape varieties, wines, and history can be daunting, especially if you are looking for a quick solution that can explain the complexities of this world. The Jumbo Shrimp Guide to Italian Wine was created thanks to the contribution of various professionals in Italian wine - not born in Italy, except for one - who chose to take on this guide for their desire to translate the complexities of Italian wine into material accessible to everyone. The authors wanted to create a book that would be easily available for anyone interested in understanding Italian wine in detail, but might feel intimidated by the subject. The book offers all the tools to easily remember the key elements: how to read and understand labels, the geographical information behind each wine, the various types of grapes, and the most significant wines that could serve as representatives of what is likely the most varied and appreciated wine production model in the world. Information on this topic is abundant; the material available is already exhaustive, but here lies the challenge: discerning which information is essential, which relevant facts to establish a solid foundation, to initiate a much broader understanding of the topic. The Jumbo Shrimp Guide to Italian Wine successfully offers the most important building blocks for studying Italian wine in an accessible way; the main producers, the great wines to watch out for, food and wine pairings, and last but not least, a useful dictionary to distinguish places, grapes, and the names of the various wines.
