Italian Wine Region Maps

Your first paragraph ...The 21 administrative regions in Italy form the basis of the wine regions. Within each region there is a hierarchy of DOCG regions, DOC regions, and IGT regions, as well as the more generic Vino di tavola classifications.

There are about 360 DOCGs and DOC's so just getting your head around the main regions is a task in itself.

One of the best resources I know of is De Long Wine Map of Italy.

This Map is incredibly detailed and is constantly being updated to reflect the evolving Italian wine classification scene.
