Cerbaia is a family-run business dedicated to the production of wines from some of the best vineyards in Montalcino. His Brunello is the true expression of a unique and distinctive place.The Cerbaia company, with its 12 hectares of land, 4.5 of which under the denomination of Brunello, is located on the hill of Montosoli, one of the most favorable terroirs for Sangiovese in Montalcino.

Is it possible to successfully harness podcast audiences and create wine sales through listens? What strategies are available to create wine sales through pods? Which are the most effective wine podcasts for driving wine sales increases? In this round table session, seasoned podcasters MJ Towler, Felicity Carter, Juliana Colangelo IWA and Adam Teeter explore the opportunity for using podcasts as sales channels for wine. More about Juliana Colangelo: Juliana Colangelo is a Vice President at Colangelo & Partners, the leading wine and spirits communications agency in the U.S. Juliana joined Colangelo & Partners in 2013 with previous experience in events, hospitality, and nonprofit development.

Welcome to Episode 1686 in which host Giulia Stocchetti interviews Gilles Coffi Degboe this week on The Next Generation where young Italian wine people 30 and under shake up the wine scene. More about today’s guest Gilles Coffi Degboe (Coffi is his first name and means "Friday") was born in Benin, a tiny strip of land located in the western part of Africa, between Nigeria and Togo. In 1994, because of his father's wishes, he moved to Bologna with his family. Gilles met wine when he was a teenager, working at the restaurant Albergo "Da Marino," in Rufina (Località Masseto), an establishment run by people his father already knew before their arrival in Italy, who later became great family friends. During this experience Gilles sipped his first goblet of Sangiovese, a goblet that created in him a curiosity about the scents of wine, its anecdotes and stories. Curiosity that then led him to begin a real journey into the world of wine. His studies began at the Pellegrino Artusi Higher Education Institute, where he also had the opportunity to attend the first level of the sommelier course organized by AIS Romagna. His first work experience abroad was in China, in Beijing, a city where, during the 2008 Olympics, he worked at Casa Italia for the C.O.N.I. (Italian National Olympic Committee). In 2012 Gilles decided to return to Emilia Romagna and complete his Sommelier studies. Shortly thereafter, the school at which he completed his studies offered him to work as a lecturer in Restaurant service -Bartending, Cafeteria and Enology. He still lectures today, alongside his work as a consultant. Gilles was until 2023 the first and only Ambassador of the Negroamaro grape variety in Italy, Europe and the World. He also has the title of Ambassador of Albana, a typical grape variety of Emilia-Romagna.

Welcome to Episode 1681, where Cynthia Chaplin interviews Italian wine producers during the wine2wine Business Forum 2023 Podcast Marathon. Today she interviews Francesca Bonzano featuring the wine - Castello di Uviglie 1491 Monferrato Rosso DOC Italian Wine Podcast is proud to be a media partner of wine2wine Business Forum and we are pleased to present this series of market focus sessions, recorded during the Forum held in Verona in November 2023. wine2wine Business Forum is an international wine business event, held annually in Verona, Italy since 2014. The event is a key annual reference point for wine producers and wine professionals from around the world, providing an opportunity to network, develop and expand their wine business worldwide. More about today’s winery: Castello di Uviglie, located in Rosignano Monferrato, is one of the oldest wineries in Piedmont: its first vine was planted way back in 1491. The arrival of my family is obviously much more recent: we acquired the winery in 2020, the year I left my life in the USA to return to my motherland. Together with our oenologist Donato Lanati, we aimed to create wines that capture the essence of Monferrato, utilizing our 50 hectares of mostly native grapes such as Barbera, Grignolino, and Albarossa. The peculiarity of Castello di Uviglie, however, lies in a tradition spanning fifty years in the production of Metodo Classico. All our wines (both sparkling, white, and red) "mature" in underground quarries that extend over an area of 10,000 square meters. These "Cave in Pietra da Cantoni" were dug by man since the 8th century AD and were formed by a seabed present in Monferrato over 18 million years ago. This stone not only cradles the roots of our vineyards but also played a significant role in shaping the urban landscape of the Monferrato area. Our latest accomplishment is holding certifications as SQNPI and Equalitas, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable agriculture and practices.

Welcome to Episode 1682; part of our Italian wine interview series set in Bologna! Today’s interview features Stefano Gabellini of Tenuta la Viola. Stevie Kim and her team traveled to the Bologna Slow Wine Fair in March 2023. There they conducted dozens of interviews with some of Italy's most inspiring producers. Join the fun every Thursday afternoon! Tune-in each Thursday as we bring you the great interviews that unfolded over the course of 3 days. More about today’s winery: The Gabellini family, owner of the estate, moved from the inland Romagna to Bertinoro and in 1962 purchased the land with Sangiovese and Albana vineyards, then bush trained. Wine was an important part of the farming tradition, and serving it on the table meant sharing with guests one’s love and pride in the fruits of one’s labour. Even back then, it was not just refreshment, but way of uniting people, a chance to spend quality time together. “For us, wine is a tradition and passion that permanently binds us to our land. We firmly believe that the history, experience, dedication and professionalism of the people who work it all come together in the quality and character of the wines it produces, making them unique.” Connect: Website: https://www.tenutalaviola.it/index.php/en/home-2/ _______________________________ Let's keep in touch!

More about today’s guest “Our journey started in Abruzzo, in the small town of Ortona in 1994 by three partners Filippo, Valentino and Camillo also called "the three dreamers" since they were able to realize a dream that seemed impossible: creating a company that was flagship of Southern Italy without owning financial capitals and owned vineyards but with a highly innovative business model. The meticulous attention to details, the targeted marketing strategies for each individual product, and oenological proposals appreciated in over 93 countries around the world confirm the Fantini Group as the largest «Boutique Winery» in Italy, true protagonist of the wine rebirth of Southern Italy.” Connect: Website https://www.fantiniwines.com/ More about the host: McKenna found her love of wine while serving in a Napa Valley tasting room.

Welcome to Episode 1673 on another episode of “On The Road Edition”, hosted by Stevie Kim, Today she moderates the session called, Sicily Teams Up with Alberto Tasca, Alessio Planeta, and Antonio Rallo during the recent wine2wine Business Forum 2023. Abstract: Italy’s largest wine-growing region is described through the voices of three producers representing not only three historic Sicilian brands, but also three important associations: Assovini, Consorzio DOC Sicilia, and Fondazione SOStain. Their story spans three decades with a common thread: a choral commitment to the growth of Sicily, a wine-growing region of recognized value and with potential yet to be expressed. This session provides an example of a “production system” where the parties team up and enable dialogue between public and private, between coops and family businesses, between consortia and associations on the island. All with the common goal of increasing the market share and value of Sicilian wine for the entire supply chain. Assovini gathers more than 100 companies that share a verticalized supply chain and a propensity to export. Consorzio DOC Sicilia, which was born in 2012, today gathers 100 million labels. Fondazione SOStain, the only example in Italy, created the procedural guideline for sustainability in Sicilian viticulture and supports some virtuous projects in Sicily. Three families and three stories with a common denominator: Sicily and the importance of teamwork.

Selling wine at major retailers is great for profit margins, but if you’re sold in the grocery store, can your wines also be sold on the wine lists of top restaurants? This session will show the following: 1. Marketing spend focused on luxury has allowed Champagne brands to sell both at major retailers and be on the lists of top restaurants. 2. Price is not enough to ensure a wine can exist in both spaces. 3.

Welcome to Episode 1671; part of our Italian wine interview series set in Bologna! Today’s interview features Simone Cane of Vietti Stevie Kim and her team traveled to the Bologna Slow Wine Fair in March 2023. There they conducted dozens of interviews with some of Italy's most inspiring producers. Join the fun every Thursday afternoon! Tune-in each Thursday as we bring you the great interviews that unfolded over the course of 3 days. More about today’s winery: In 1917, returning after many years from living in the United States, Mario Vietti, Carlo’s son, took the reins of the company, transforming it into a winery suitable for the production of high-quality wines. At the end of the 1950s, Alfredo Currado, husband of Luciana Vietti, oenologist and art lover, put into relation the great experience of the Vietti family with new intuitions, capable of intertwining wine knowledge with art and culture. Beginning of 2023, Luca Currado Vietti, together with his wife Elena, departed from the Winery. The Heritage is taken over by the Krause Family, already owner of the Cellar since 2016 and standard-bearer of the new future of the Vietti brand. As the seasons progressed, the company also grew and the focus on improvement soon became a real distinctive style of the winery. Just like the selection and care in the vineyard. Today, Vietti counts, within its heritage, some of the finest and most representative vineyards of the Barolo and Barbaresco areas. As in the past, Vietti maintains those founding values, the same that animated Carlo Vietti at the beginning, and all his successors then. It looks towards the future with even more promising and stimulating prospects. Each wine is the result of artisanal work and the profound understanding and interpretation of each individual terroir. Vietti is thus the place where the intelligence of the hands, applied in the vineyard and the cellar, meets the vision.

Her love of wine began over a decade ago after taking a wine course during her study abroad in Florence, Italy - an opportunity that allowed her to travel to vineyards across Tuscany learning about wine and the art of deductive tasting. Eight years ago, she decided to pursue this passion even further - a move that led her to work in Tuscany, Italy; Australia’s Barossa Valley; Marlborough, New Zealand; La Rioja, Spain; as well as Sonoma, Los Angeles, New York City and now, Rome. She’s currently working for an Italian luxury travel agency, pursuing a Masters Degree in Food and Beverage Management, and working on her side business, Vin Concierge — a platform designed to provide members with the best Italian wine recommendations, food pairing suggestions and recipes, as well as carefully-curated food and wine itineraries throughout Italy.

Welcome to Episode 1662 on another episode of “On The Road Edition”, hosted by Stevie Kim. Today we are bringing you a throwback to Stevie’s conversation series “Wonderful Women in Wine” recorded on instalive during the pandemic. In this episode Stevie sits down with Priscilla Incisa della Rocchetta More about today’s winery Tenuta San Guido is a property of approximately 2,500 hectares, of which around one hundred are under vineyards. The company was the first to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine back in the 1940s thanks to the experiments and vision of its founder, Marquis Mario Incisa della Rocchetta. The choice of this variety and the use of barriques for aging laid the foundations for the "Bolgheri" model. The company is the only one to have vineyards suitable for claiming DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia, a typology born as a sub-area of the Bolgheri DOC already in 1994 and converted to an autonomous DOC in December 2013. The company's wine par excellence is Sassicaia, the whose first vintage on the market dates back to 1968.

Welcome to Episode 1660; part of our Italian wine interview series set in Bologna! Today’s interview features Ninni Collalto of Borgoluce Stevie Kim and her team traveled to the Bologna Slow Wine Fair in March 2023. There they conducted dozens of interviews with some of Italy's most inspiring producers. Join the fun every Thursday afternoon! Tune-in each Thursday as we bring you the great interviews that unfolded over the course of 3 days. More about today’s winery: Borgoluce is a 1000-hectare estate in the hills of the Province of Treviso, between Venice and the Dolomites. It has a long history behind it, inextricably interwoven with the local area, its place names, geography and culture. Ahead of it, it has the challenge of maintaining biodiversity and a balanced environment, which it seeks by diversifying its crops, with circularity as a compass with which to orient itself.
