Many wine drinkers avoid the grape due to its reputation as “sweet,” while sommeliers and wine professionals sing its praises as a complex, age-worthy, high-acid wine. In reality, Riesling takes on a wide range of expressions. Many examples are bone dry with laser-like acidity and a crisp mineral edge, while others offer ripe fruit flavors and, yes, a slight hint of sweetness

Marsala is rarely sipped by itself in the U.S., most often appearing as the cooking wine used to make veal or chicken marsala. But like Port and sherry, Marsala is a fortified wine that can be crafted and aged to be distinctive and enjoyable on its own. Today we sample the highest classification of Marsala, a Vergine Reserva, which must be at least ten years old and is crafted to be sipped.

The Roman Empire’s wine industry was massive. As we travel through time, we see the grapevine spread throughout Italy in tandem with the flourishing of the Empire itself.
