Italy Southern Islands Wine Map - 2nd Edition

Southern Italy and its islands are where ancient vines meet volcanic drama and serious sun. This region brings the heat, literally and figuratively, with bold reds, zesty whites, and native grapes you didn’t know you needed in your glass.

From the heel of Italy in Puglia to the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, the wines here are full of personality. Primitivo and Nero d’Avola lead the charge, but dig deeper and you’ll find gems like Aglianico (Italy’s answer to structured reds), juicy Frappato, and the savory elegance of Nerello Mascalese grown on lava rock.

This map takes you through the key appellations of Campania, Basilicata, Calabria, Sicily, and Sardinia. Expect everything from seaside minerality to dense, age-worthy reds grown in extreme conditions. It’s rustic, it’s exciting, and it’s a total flavor bomb of a wine region.
