The coastal regions of Italy — home to picturesque areas such as Liguria, Sicily, Naples and the Amalfi Coast — have long produced stunning white wines, generally made from indigenous varieties and influenced by the local coastal breezes which impart refreshing, saline characteristics. Rich volcanic soils are woven through much of the landscape, producing complex whites that are unique to each region.

For more than ten years Andrew Moody has been sourcing and stocking some of our city’s best restaurants and bottle shops with the finest Italian wine. His portfolio includes more than 200 Italian and as a regular visitor to the region, he is sought after to share his knowledge and love of the best of Italy in a bottle.

Join Andrew in the Wine Loft on Saturday, 11 March, 11 am - 2 pm as he shares the Coastal Whites of Italy with us.
