Wine as Gift to Italy

[DocCountry]

I met someone who lives in the Tuscan region of Italy. I would like to know what would be a good gift for him. I would like to send him a quality domestic. In our conversation he was curious about California wines and I had to admit that I am such a novice that ..... Ernest and Julio is all I know. Sad but true.

Are there issuse shipping to Italy?

any help is appreciated.
