This is going to be among a series of articles I am going to be writing about European wines.
Italian wines have been consistently among the highest quality and highly impressive wines of the world for centuries, and if we want to drink good and memorable wines, we need to become more familiar with them.

For starters, I suggest an amazingly tasty wine from the Veneto province, called Amarone della Valpolicella. Valpolicella is a grape growing region that produces light and fragrant quality wines using 3 types of grapes, Covina, Rondinella, and Molinara. Amarone, which is a type of Valpolicella is ranked among the highest quality and impressively tasty wines of the region. This wine tickles the senses. It could be considered a sexy wine because it revives the taste buds and re-stimulates the senses.
It is a fruity wine, that carries the taste of black cherry with hints of prune. It is settling in the mouth, and delightfully pleasing. It is dry, warm, and full bodied.
I would take it to friends and family gatherings, and suggest it for any important event, because you can receive nothing but compliments when you serve it. It is by no means an ordinary wine, and should be in any cellar to make it complete.
This wine is ideal with most lamb dishes, especially, stew or braised. Drink it with the Moroccan Couscous and similar dishes that are tomato based like beef and chicken ragout.
This is a wine that brings joy and happiness to the soul, and revives the spirit.
Cheers,
Italian Wines - Amarone Della Valpolicella
