IGT stands for Indicazione Geografica Tipica, which may be translated as Typical Geographic Indication,
in other words a wine that typifies its specific location.
This classification was created in 1992 to provide a level of wine above table wine, and below DOC. Interestingly,
enough, some very fine wines carry this classification, which gives the producer a lot of leeway in making the wine.
