Italian Reds Dozen

Start in the North in Piedmont’s Monferrato with a beautifully elegant and high-toned Nebbiolo, then head to Verona for a lavish red made with Corvina, the grape used for those famous Valpolicellas and Amarones. Tuscany is represented by the great Paolo Masi, an undisputed Chianti master – this is exquisite. A spice-rich Montepulciano d’Abruzzo also delight. Last, head south to sun-drenched Puglia in Italy’s boot for a feisty Merlot and the racy, bestselling Corsiero Nero, decadently deep and rich. With 2 bottles of each in one great case, you’ll have plenty to share when the pizza and pasta is on the table.
