Italy’s red wines, steeped in tradition and terroir, captivate with their diversity and soul. This Happy Wine Calle 8 collection highlights Italy’s finest, from Tuscany’s rolling hills to Piedmont’s misty vineyards, offering bold and refined reds for every palate.
Tuscany’s Sangiovese, like Chianti Classico, sings with bright cherry, violet, and earthy leather. Grown on clay and limestone, its lively acidity and firm tannins pair beautifully with pasta Bolognese or grilled meats, embodying rustic elegance.
Piedmont’s Nebbiolo, found in Barolo and Barbaresco, delivers power and finesse. Expect rose, tar, and truffle notes with grippy tannins. These age-worthy reds, from foggy, hilly vineyards, shine with osso buco or aged Parmesan, offering depth and complexity.
From Veneto, Amarone della Valpolicella, made with dried Corvina grapes, bursts with raisin, fig, and spice. Its velvety, full-bodied richness, born of volcanic soils, complements braised beef or gorgonzola, balancing intensity with warmth.
Sicily’s Nero d’Avola brings juicy blackberry, plum, and peppery flair. Grown under Mediterranean sun, this vibrant, medium-bodied red pairs with spicy sausages or eggplant dishes, showcasing the island’s bold character.
Italy’s reds weave history, passion, and place into every sip. This collection invites you to savor la dolce vita through wines that elevate any meal or moment with timeless allure.
