FOREIGN WINES

Countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, the United States and South Africa have become global benchmarks, producing top-quality wines. Their Pinot Noir, Syrah and Chardonnay are distinguished by their aromatic profiles, marked by their unique terroirs, and rival those of France's great growths. These foreign wines appeal for their innovation and diversity.

Italy, meanwhile, remains a key player on the world wine scene. With over 700,000 hectares of vines, it is the world's largest wine producer. Iconic regions such as Tuscany, Piedmont and Sicily produce exceptional wines, from robust Barolo and Chianti to rich Nero d'Avola. The diversity of Italian grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Nebbiolo and Montepulciano, combined with ancestral know-how, makes Italy an almost unrivalled wine-producing region.
