Jumbo Shrimp Guide to International Grape Varieties in Italy is born from the collaboration of three authors who realized that in the study of lesser-known varieties, and in the hunt for lesser-known wines, many great grapes, denominations, and wines are overlooked by the recent literature on Italian wine.
It is true that Italy has more than 500 registered native grapes at the national level, but it is also true that in many regions of Italy some of the best wines are produced using international grape varieties.
The team wanted to explore this topic for the first time in a dedicated book, examining not only the wines created from these grapes but also their history in the country, their rise to popularity, and how they are growing.
Of course, it starts first with a discussion of what makes an international grape! Furthermore, the team felt it was important to include some pages dedicated to how wines produced from international grape varieties in Italy are distinguishable from those produced elsewhere.
As a result, this book is designed to be appreciated by the casual consumer, but it is also a useful tool for more experienced students and tasters.
All of this is, of course, conceived in the typical style of the Jumbo Shrimp guide: key information is presented in an accessible and entertaining way and does not have to be approached chronologically, allowing the reader to follow the order they prefer.

The Jumbo Shrimp Guide to International Grape Varieties in Italy was created thanks to the collaboration between three writers that realized that in the current trend towards more and more obscure varieties, and the hunt for the lesser-known wines, many great grapes, denominations and wines are overlooked in new literature about Italian wine. It’s true that Italy has more than 500 nationally registered native grapes, but it’s also true that in many regions of Italy some of the best wines are made using international varieties.
The team wanted to explore this topic, looking into not only the wines created from these grapes, but their history in the country, their rise to popularity, and how they’re doing. It of course also begins with a discussion about what makes a grape international in the first place! In addition, the team felt it was important to include pages dedicated to how the wines made from international grape varieties in Italy are distinguishable from those produced elsewhere.
As a result, this book is designed to be enjoyed by the casual consumer, as well as a useful tool for wine students and more experienced tasters.
