Great Wines of Italy as selected by James Suckling are wines not to be missed.

James Suckling has created a list of his Top 100 Wines of 2017.

100 wines were selected from the over 3,500 wines tasted by James Suckling and his team of tasters. We had the opportunity to taste many of these top 100 wines and noticed that there was a dominance of Tuscan wines.

Overall, we are in agreement that these are Great Wines of Italy.  With only one wine in 2017 earning a perfect score of 100 points, we are calling this the My Favorite Wine Is Tua Rita Toscana Regaffi.
