Between the Appenine Mountains and the Adriatic Sea, Le Marche is quickly being recognised as the new frontier for quality wine production in Italy. The best red wines are made from both Sangiovese and Montepulciano. In this land of charming medieval towns and vast stretches of untamed coastline, these grapes are soft, fruity and generally inexpensive. For white wine you just can't go wrong with the light and crisply refreshing Verdicchio.
