Most Italians take wine for granted. It is simply on the dinner table; almost every dinner table. At last count, Italy had about 2.3 million acres under vines. She produces millions of gallons of wine. Due to a winemaking revolution during the past 30 years, Italian wine is better than ever, and the ones made from the indigenous varieties, like Barbera, are some of the most compelling.
