Wine Wednesday: Piemonte

  • Market Street Wine 311 East Market Street Charlottesville United States (map)

Italy’s Piemonte!

This Wednesday, we head up to Italy’s mountainous northwest corner, the Piemonte region!

Come taste wines from Italy’s second largest geographical region and seventh largest wine producing region.

With its name translating to “foot of the mountain,” this Alpine area has given us the indigenous grapes of Nebbiolo, Barbera, and Dolcetto, Cortese, Arneis, and Moscato.

Guest pourer Jose Perea from Le Storie Wines promises fun wines but refuses to yodel “ ‘cause that’s a Swiss Alps thing.”
