2019 Barbaresco: unhurried vines make classic wines
Enticing maxims aside, the best winegrapes are seldom grown in extreme environments. Whereas mild water and nutrient deficiencies can help reduce excessive vegetative growth—which may compete with fruit and buds for resources—severe climatic perturbations make grapegrowing impracticable. Intense rainfall encourages rampant canopy growth, promoting disease and retarding ripening; meanwhile, prolonged, intense drought limits photosynthesis, delays ripening, reduces bud fruitfulness and may result in sudden vine collapse. Challenged by increasingly abnormal and unpredictable weather events, Piedmontese winemakers hope for regularity, namely, uneventful vintages defined by an absence of trepidation and turmoil. Following two distinctly challenging vintages, 2019 Barbaresco marks a welcome return to normality, a ‘classical’ Barbaresco vintage yielding charming, structured, and age-worthy wines.

Refosco, Or The Color Of Friuli’s Top Red Wine 10 May 2022 17:47 |

Refosco, Or The Color Of Friuli’s Top Red Wine
Name-wise, unsurprisingly the red-wine grape Refosco dal Pedunculo Rosso has a red stem. In addition to its color, this plant part is in specific relation: perhaps unhelpfully peduncolo means peduncle, which is a stem that ends at a flower or a fruit, this grape’s lifeline bestowing also the cultivar’s red name. The variety has been around what is now Italy’s Friuli-Venezia-Giulia region since the Romans, and the wines made of it long depictions in great acidity and tannins, of meaty savoriness, spice, green noted, rose, cedar, and of deep but also shimmying color. It is one of six native red grapes that along with at least two traditional reds stand alongside the many white varieties that make up 77 percent of FVG’s wines — “one of the highest proportions of any Italian region,” notes the educational wine database Wine-Searcher.

There’s a renaissance happening in the Italian wine world, and women are leading the way. According to a Wine Intelligence study, women represent 55 percent of the country’s regular wine consumers. But in addition to their buying power, they are also making strides as wine industry professionals. Although only 10 percent of women are involved in production and in the vineyards, according to a joint study conducted by the University of Siena, Donne del Vino, and Unione Italiana Vini, their increased prominence and power in the industry is undeniable.

And, like last year, the event is both a pleasure and a challenge, a tasting of almost 350 wines where I willingly sacrifice the skin of my mouth and the enamel of my teeth to bring you, dear reader, an appraisal of these new releases.

Drinks Atlas: Sicilian Wines
The Mediterranean’s largest island and home to important archeological sites, the world’s best capers, and the mythic Mount Etna, Sicily is also an ancient viticultural region with renewed promise. From its cuisine to its architectural influences, nearly every aspect of Sicilian culture weaves nuanced stories of the island’s complex history. Due to Sicily’s strategic location, the island was the subject of repeated conquests since it was first inhabited 10,000 years ago by three peoples, including the Siculi, from whom its name was derived. Thanks to viticultural practices developed under the Phoenicians and cemented by the Greeks as early as the 8th century BCE, Sicilian wines were among the best known and loved in antiquity.

The Pecorino Grape -- A Rising White Wine Star in the Abruzzo Region of Italy
Many people have heard of Pecorino cheese made from sheep’s milk, but few have heard of the Pecorino grape used to make a delicious white wine - with notes of jasmine, peach, a touch of salty minerality and a crisp refreshingly high acidity. However, the Abruzzo wine region of Italy, two hours east of Rome, is now laying claim to this once nearly extinct grape as one of its signature white wine grapes. Though it is also found in parts of Marche, Umbria, Liguria, and Tuscany, it is being widely adopted by Abruzzo producers as an intriguing alternative for consumers who enjoy Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, but are seeking a more unique wine experience.

As was the case for Phoenix-like Italian varieties such as Schiopettino and Timorasso, Falanghina was on the brink of extinction before being rescued by Leonard Mustili and "a few other local growers and producers" in the early 1970s.
