The Wines of Italy
The Roman poets liked to speak of Italy as "oenotria tell us," the land of wine; Oenotria, in fact, was the old Greek name for southeast Italy.
There is a tendency to regard Italian wines as cheap and cheerful from Chianti in a wicker fiasco to sweet and frothy Lambrusco.
If Italian wines have lagged far behind the French in terms of international repute, that is partly because Italy itself is such a recent creation. The regionalism of Italy is reflected in its wines.
意大利美酒
古罗马时代的诗人喜欢称意大利为"欧诺特利亚之地"，即葡萄酒之乡；实际上，欧诺特利亚是古希腊语中的一个名词，意指意大利东南部。
人们往往认为意大利葡萄酒价格便宜，并且容易使人兴奋。从柳条长颈大肚瓶装契安第红葡萄酒，到味甜多泡的摩德纳葡萄酒。
虽然在国际声誉上意大利酒远远落后于法国酒，但是，在一定程度上那是意大利这个国家本身也是一个新生产物。意大利的地方主义也反映在酒上
