187 ml Italian wine - Smaller size for special moments

Many people have quit buying large bottles of wine and are instead buying the 187 ml Italian wine. This size is often better as this amount of Italian wine is enough for most situations. It also seems like many winemakers in Italy are tapping the wine more and more into 187ml bottles.

Italian wine is famous worldwide and Italy is one of the oldest wine producing regions in the world. Since wine is popular in Italy and the climate allows it, grapes are grown in a large part of the country. Italy actually has more than 1 million vineyards with grapes under cultivation.

In Italy most of the wines are done in modern wineries with grapes from the vineyards, but in some places the villagers make wine for their own use. Here they often tread the grapes with their feet until the juice is squeezed out, just like in the old days. Most of them don't tap the wine into 187ml bottles though, but they believe that this method still makes the best Italian wine.

In many restaurants you can get 187 ml Italian wine bottles such as merlot and pinot white zin for about $4.95.
