On the heels of my trip with a group of Patrons to Campania, I wanted to do a show on Taurasi while it was still fresh in my mind. Taurasi, a small (472 ha / 1,166 acres) DOCG region, is indisputably one of Italy's greatest red wines along with Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello, Chianti, Vino Nobile, and Montefalco Sagrantino. Taurasi, made of the ancient Aglianico grape, is in Campania, more specifically in hills northeast of Irpinia/Avellino and is centered around the town of Taurasi, a small town with a 10th-century castle that was rebuilt by the Normans. Over the 17 towns within the denomination soils and altitudes range dramatically. Higher altitudes create complex, more acidic styles due to a longer growing season with great diurnal swings. Towns with more clay create extremely tannic wines, while those with sand have certain warmth and fruitiness that makes them easy to drink in their youth. There are a multitude of styles and, with soils in the region layered like a lasagna, the flavors you get from the Aglianico grape depend largely on the site on which it grows. Aglianico is a misunderstood grape, as is Taurasi as a wine. Aglianico is a red with complex, terroir driven flavors of dark fruit, red fruit, spice, black pepper notes, and excellent acidity and tannin. Taurasi, made from a biotype of Aglianico that is particularly dark-skinned, small berried and flavorful makes exquisite wines that have the aging capability of a Barolo or Bordeaux. The grape translates the terroir into the bottle and both where the grapes grow and who makes the wine determines the style – it's an area you could explore for ages and keep discovering new expressions of Aglianico. In fact, Taurasi is called the “Barolo of the South” for nuance and depth of flavor, and variation of its terroir. In this show I cover the extensive history of the region, with all its ups and downs, the climate, altitudes, and land and then discuss the expression of the Aglianico grape and why it makes such fascinating wines. If you haven't had a Taurasi, get on it. Vis a vis other top wines, it is insanely affordable (top wines are less than US$100) and it is a wine that will hold your interest with every sip! Certainly for its history and for its quality, Taurasi is one of the great wines of the world. Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

Grab your fava beans and your garrote piano wire as NostalgiaCast takes a deep-dive into Martin Scorsese's CAPE FEAR and Jonathan Demme's THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, two killer thrillers from two American masters not typically known for their horror chops. Jason of The Slashers and Binge Movies podcasts joins us to discuss the terror, torture, uncompromising head games, and oppressive existential dread that defines not just these two box office behemoths but also the current state of film criticism today. TRIGGER WARNING: This episode includes frank discussions of violence and sexual abuse as associated with the horror genre.
Hello, Horror Fans! This week on the Horrorcraft podcast, Cass and Kylee are diving into the chilling and iconic Silence of the Lambs. More than just a psychological horror classic, this film gives us one of the most compelling female leads in horror history—Clarice Starling. A young FBI trainee navigating a world full of men who doubt her, Clarice's quiet strength, sharp mind, and resilience make her a standout in a genre often dominated by final girls running for their lives. We'll talk about her dynamic with Hannibal Lecter, how her presence challenges the power structures around her, and how Hannibal, the sequel, continues (and complicates) her story.Join us for a deep dive into gender, power, fear, and the fine art of psychological warfare—plus some fava beans and a nice Chianti, of course.Silence of the Lambs is currently streaming on MaxHannibal is also available on PeacockHannibal Rising is available on TUBIHannibal the TV Series is available on AMC+Find our facts on Silence of the Lambs:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102926/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_silenceA HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR FRIEND TIKI FOR MAKING OUR NEW INTRO!!!!!!!Stay Spooky!!!
J'ai le plaisir de recevoir dans ce nouvel épisode un coureur dont l'ambition et le niveau ne cessent de grimper, tout comme le nombre de ses kilomètres hebdomadaires : Aubin Ferrari.À seulement 27 ans, ce Savoyard exilé en Suisse conjugue passion, discipline et humilité, dans un équilibre singulier entre vie professionnelle engagée et rêve de haute performance en ultra.Après une très belle 14e place à l'UTMB en 2024, Aubin a lancé sa saison 2025 tambour battant avec le Chianti by UTMB, une course qui a réuni un plateau international étourdissant, avec notamment Kilian Jornet, Jim Walmsley ou encore Vincent Bouillard, au cœur des vignes et des collines toscanes.Son objectif : un chrono sous les 11h15 sur les 123 km et 5400 D+.Dans cet échange, Aubin revient en détail sur sa préparation hivernale millimétrée, ses moments de pleine maîtrise comme de doute sur la course, et cette confrontation de haut vol face au gratin mondial de l'ultra-trail.Une performance solide qui confirme son ambition légitime à jouer dans la cour des grands.Bonne écoute ! ***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre, dans chaque épisode, une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.

Errico Buonanno, Joshua Held"I bambini sono matti"Gallucci Editorewww.galluccieditore.comI mostri sotto al letto ma solo se la luce è spenta, la pasta che porta fortuna quando nel piatto i rigatoni sono pari, la sfida per diventare il più grande nascondinista del mondo, le buche nella sabbia che, se scavi abbastanza, arrivano dall'altra parte del pianeta… la vita dei bambini è piena di faccende importantissime che agli adulti sembrano strane, assurde o addirittura matte!Le storie stravaganti, comiche e all'occorrenza anche un po' pungenti di Errico Buonanno spiegano agli adulti la logica dei più piccoli, raccontando come ogni realtà possa diventare un luogo fantastico.Pagine divertenti che si possono leggere da soli per godersi un po' di tenera nostalgia o insieme con i piccoli per condividere momenti di spensieratezzaErrico Buonanno è autore di saggi, romanzi e programmi radio e tv. Ha realizzato podcast e serie web. Questo è il suo secondo libro dedicato ai bambini.Joshua Held è nato nel 1967 a Firenze. Malgrado il cognome straniero parla in toscano, non pronuncia la "c" e dice "bischero" proprio come un vero artista del Chianti. Da bambino leggeva fumetti e giocava tra i capolavori rinascimentali. Così prima si è diplomato in pianoforte e poi si è messo a disegnare cartoon. I suoi personaggi si muovono a ritmo di musica. Come il cinghialino del suo primo libro, illustrato per Gallucci, Vengo anch'io! No, tu no. E il cucciolo della serie, pubblicata con Gallucci, aperta da Dig e l'osso di Digòn.

Děkuju :)O čem je tahle epizoda?V této epizodě podcastu jsem vyzpovídal Tomáše Fárníka, českého reprezentanta v horských a ultra trailových bězích. Jeho jméno jste mohli zaregistrovat mimo jiné v souvislosti s fenomenálním výkonem na Matterhorn Ultraks, kde zvítězil s druhým nejrychlejším časem od roku 2018, nebo třemi triumfy na Lysohorském Ultra Trailu (LHUT). V roce 2024 navíc přispěl k zisku bronzové medaile českého týmu na mistrovství Evropy v horských bězích.Hned v úvodu jsme probrali jeho nejčerstvější zážitek z březnového UTMB v Chianti, kde se na trati 123 km / 5 200 m objevila i světová esa jako Kilian Jornet či Jim Walmsley. Tomáš v silné konkurenci vybojoval výborné 6. místo a podělil se o průběh závodu, svou strategii i profil trati. Prozradil také, jaké to bylo potkat se s běžícími legendami.Tomáš se s námi podělil o své sportovní začátky, o vliv otce Michala Fárníka a o tom, jak kombinuje trénink s pracovním životem. Trénuje především v Krkonoších a jeho koučem je Zdenda Kříž, který o něm říká: „Tom je strašnej nervák a “nesnesitelnej” puntičkář. Když je trenink napsanej na 2:15 hod tak je v trainingpeaksu 2:15,02. Takhle je to ve 100% případů. Nevím, jak to dělá, ale já to miluju.“ :-)Probrali jsme i významné závody Tomovy kariéry: vedle Matterhorn Ultraks nebo MS 2023, kde skončil 9., zmiňoval i oblibu v českých horách a názory na tuzemský i světový skyrunning.Zajímaly mě taky detaily jeho tréninku – objemy, obecná struktura, použití zátěžových testů, práce na technice i regenerace. Tomáš se netají tím, že se na sobě snaží systematicky pracovat, což bude zajímat nejednoho běžce.V neposlední řadě jsme narazili na výživu a vybavení. Tomáš běhá za Salomon, během závodů nepoužívá hole a pečlivě si hlídá příjem jídla. Na závody se připravuje do detailu.Na závěr přiblížil plány pro letošní sezónu. Pokud se chcete inspirovat, dozvědět se o životě vrcholového ultra běžce a nasát atmosféru světových trailů, tenhle díl rozhodně nepropásnete.Podcast MAKEJ VOLE! také podporují:Runsport.cz - Experti na kopceZa podporu děkuju hodným lidičkám z běžecké speciálky Runsport.cz, kteří mě zásobují nejen hadříkama a botkama na běhání a lyže, ale taky mi půjčují prostor pro natočení podcastu.

The Content Room takes What's with the Pineapple on the road to the Michigan Food & Hospitality Show floor for a lineup of hospitality heavy-hitters. First up, Julie Pinkston wearing all of the hats joins to discuss her roles as president of the Michigan Association of CVBs, secretary of the Michigan Hospitality Tourism Alliance, and her day job leading Choose Lansing – where they're busy transforming downtown with new venues, hotels with rooftop bars, and earning national recognition as the country's #2 destination for accessible travel. Next, Alicia Rainwater from the Center for Generational Kinetics drops in to drop knowledge on managing four generations in the workplace, revealing why Gen Z isn't "Millennials 2.0" and predicting that Gen Alpha will be shaped by AI the way their predecessors were by smartphones. Mission Point Resort's Liz Ware stops by sporting her new Lilac Lounge merch to share updates on their Chianti restaurant renovation, the northern Michigan ice storm recovery, and why she's tired of seeing "Galena, Illinois ads" instead of Pure Michigan spots. The episode wraps with Claude Molinari declaring this "the best day of my life" while detailing Visit Detroit's vision for the new JW Marriott and upcoming Final Four, and Beth Hussey introducing her industry training app Shifty teaching Justin and Emily to "Get Your Shift Together". The common thread? Michigan's hospitality industry is building back stronger through collaboration – or as everyone on the show seems to say, "we're stronger together."Presented by Fahey, Schultz, Burzych, Rhodes PLDC.

Before we dive into today's episode, I want to take a moment to acknowledge a significant event that has touched millions around the world. Earlier this week, we learned of the passing of Pope Francis. His leadership, compassion, and unwavering commitment to faith and service left an indelible mark not only on the Catholic Church but also on the global community. Whether you are a person of faith or simply someone who values the impact of a life dedicated to service, his legacy reminds us of the power of humility, hope, and unity. Our thoughts are with all those mourning this loss. May he rest in peace.Welcome back to Beats, Vines & Life!

From childhood memories of simmering garlic and baking bread to adventures in some of Italy's most iconic vineyards. Bobby shares stories of his family's culinary legacy, travel tales with his daughter Stella, and reflections on how Italian wine and food are inextricably linked.This lively conversation takes listeners on a tour through the heart of Italian wine country, exploring regions like Marche, Umbria, Lazio, and, of course, Tuscany. Expect a blend of vivid wine tasting notes, behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the restaurant world, and plenty of laughs as MJ and Bobby dig into everything from the rise of Super Tuscans to the quirks of American wine marketing.Whether you're a seasoned oenophile or just looking to expand your palate, you'll love this journey through Italy's central vineyards—served with side dishes of history, family, and a slice of real-life food and wine culture.

I think people are feeling a bit of a worry about the economy worldwide, so I thought I'd make some suggestions for inexpensive wines that taste like expensive ones! Almost every wine is below $18, although I put under $20 in the title because it seemed punchier! I did lots of research to make sure these were way below US$20 in markets across the US and around the world. For inclusion in the list they had to be great wines that I would buy even if they weren't such great values (and with tariffs, they will be less good values, but still inexpensive). These are wines I drink regularly. Even though there are inexpensive versions of some wines (Fiano, Chianti, etc), I did not include them because I don't think the inexpensive versions of those are good enough. This list is the cream of the crop below $20. For each wine I discuss the background, the flavors, and why they are inexpensive (in case you are suspicious!). Some wines included: Picpoul, Crémant de Loire, Côtes de Bordeaux and Argentinean Malbec from Cafayate (different from Mendoza) Enjoy the list! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

Care for a glass of Chianti or Bordeaux after recent market volatility? It'll cost ya. After a tense few weeks, President Donald Trump announced a 20% tariff on all EU goods, including wine. While you might think that U.S. producers would be cheering, domestic wineries and wine shops are worried. Plus, there's an ongoing tug-of-war in the bond market, and there's a rally on Capitol Hill today over cuts to humanitarian aid.

In Episode 97 of Trail Society, hosts Corrine Malcolm, Keely Henninger, and Hillary Allen dive into a wide range of topics, including the latest news in the world of sports and personal updates from their busy lives. They cover the historic election of Kirsty Coventry as the first female president of the International Olympic Committee, along with the growing momentum of women's basketball, highlighted by record-breaking viewership during March Madness. The episode also touches on the latest developments in sports science, including intriguing research about the impact of marathons on brain health and myelin levels, and a rundown of exciting recent races like Chianti by UTMB, where thrilling battles for golden tickets played out. The hosts also recap their experiences at Big Alta, sharing race results, insights on pacing, and lessons learned from competing in challenging events. The episode also features a deep dive into Keely Henninger's journey as a medical student and competitive athlete. Keely reflects on the challenges of balancing her rigorous medical school schedule with her running goals, admitting that the elusive "perfect balance" is difficult to achieve. Training has become more flexible as she adapts to the stress of school and life, with racing now secondary to her academic commitments. She shares her experience at Big Alta, where she had to adjust her expectations and race strategy, understanding that her priorities have shifted, but her love for running remains strong. Keely's reflections offer a candid look at the complexities of pursuing big goals in both medicine and athletics, emphasizing the importance of flexibility and realistic expectations when juggling demanding careers and athletic pursuits.

La 57ª edizione di Vinitaly, in programma dal 6 al 9 aprile a Veronafiere, si conferma punto di riferimento per il vino italiano con circa 4.000 aziende espositrici e l’intero quartiere fieristico occupato. Attesi operatori da 140 Paesi, con l’obiettivo di confermare la presenza di 30mila buyer internazionali, inclusi gli Stati Uniti, nonostante le recenti tensioni commerciali. Le delegazioni più numerose arrivano da USA, Canada, Cina, Regno Unito, Brasile, India, Singapore, Giappone e Corea del Sud, mentre in Europa spiccano Germania, Svizzera, Nord Europa e Balcani. Vinitaly 2025 punta a rafforzare l’internazionalizzazione e la promozione del settore, evolvendo da osservatore delle tendenze a vero incubatore del vino globale. Nel 2025 Veronafiere punta a rafforzare promozione e internazionalizzazione, con Vinitaly che evolve da semplice osservatore a incubatore di tendenze del settore vinicolo. Tuttavia, le nuove tariffe imposte dagli Stati Uniti da parte del presidente Trump generano tensioni sul commercio internazionale del vino. Il governo italiano risponde con un netto rifiuto a ritorsioni, puntando invece su negoziati con gli USA, semplificazione normativa, sostegno alla competitività delle imprese e apertura di nuovi mercati tramite accordi bilaterali. Contrariamente a quanto sostenuto da alcuni, la maggior parte del vino italiano esportato non è di fascia alta: solo il 2% supera i 50 dollari a bottiglia, mentre l'80% ha un prezzo franco cantina sotto i 4 euro al litro. I dazi quindi colpiscono duramente etichette popolari come Prosecco, Pinot Grigio, Lambrusco e Chianti, che rappresentano il grosso del volume d'affari negli USA. L’Unione Italiana Vini propone di condividere il costo dei dazi con gli importatori americani: un 10% a carico dei produttori e un 10% sugli importatori, che spesso applicano ricarichi elevati (una bottiglia da 5 euro in Italia arriva a costare oltre 15 dollari negli USA). Ne parliamo con alcuni fra i maggiori rappresentanti di settore:Marilisa Allegrini, Gruppo Marilisa Allegrini, Riccardo Paqua - Amministratore Delegato Pasqua Vini Igor Boccardo, direttore generale di Leone Alato Cristina Nonino, amministratore delegato Nonino (nella foto qua sotto con Sebastiano Barisoni)Andrea Conzonato, Amministratore delegato di Herita Marzotto Wine Estates (nella foto qua sotto con Sebastiano Barisoni)Dazi: Ue, "bazooka" sempre sul tavolo, ma vogliamo un negoziato con gli UsaLa Commissione Europea mantiene un approccio prudente nella risposta ai dazi imposti dagli Stati Uniti, ribadendo la volontà di evitare uno scontro frontale: il cosiddetto “bazooka” - ovvero misure anticoercitive come restrizioni su import-export, investimenti e diritti di proprietà intellettuale - resta sul tavolo ma non viene ancora attivato. L'obiettivo è aprire un negoziato, non generare un "big bang". Intanto, l'UE si prepara a rispondere ai dazi su acciaio e alluminio con una contro-lista di prodotti americani, escluso il whisky, dal valore complessivo di 21 miliardi di euro, contro i 26 miliardi delle tariffe USA. I controdazi scatteranno in tre fasi: il 15 aprile, il 16 maggio e il 1° dicembre. A breve si discuterà anche la risposta europea ai nuovi dazi sulle auto e alla tariffa generalizzata del 20% annunciata dagli USA sotto il nome di "reciproca". Parallelamente, Bruxelles accelera sulla diversificazione dei mercati: sono in corso contatti con l’India per negoziare un accordo di libero scambio a fasi, mentre la presidente von der Leyen ha avviato un dialogo diretto con il premier cinese Li Qiang, sottolineando l’importanza della stabilità e del sostegno a un commercio globale equo e riformato. Sul fronte italiano, Palazzo Chigi ha avviato un ciclo di incontri tra governo e categorie economiche per valutare l’impatto dei dazi USA e definire misure di supporto alle filiere più colpite, con la partecipazione di Meloni, Tajani, Salvini, Giorgetti, Urso, Lollobrigida, Foti e i sottosegretari Mantovano e Fazzolari.Il commento è di Adriana Cerretelli, editorialista Il Sole 24 Ore Bruxelles.

And when you F around...sometimes you find out. We hope that you feel a connection to your big scary dreams. Thank you for giving us the courage to dream bigger!And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: racing lessons from Big Alta, why ankles are annoying, guys v. dudes, running your own race, Jim Walmsley dominates at Chianti, Kilian is going to Western States, sauna v. hot tub, going from 0 to 1 to 2 kids, running groups, bike v. treadmill, core work, life "balance" for people with big goals, long-term training builds, and lots more.This episode gives you a raw window into the true story that athletes rarely tell.

Once a political journalist covering Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, Stephanie found herself unexpectedly in the world of Chianti, managing communications for a top winery. Now, she's a wine importer and producer in Italy's Valle d'Itria, championing rare indigenous grapes and shaking up tradition with her new boxed wine brand, Liquido. In this episode, Stephanie shares her fascinating journey, the challenges of Italian wine culture, and her mission to preserve forgotten grape varieties all while navigating the complexities of modern wine production.

In this episode, you will be able to: Discover the unique journey of Stephanie, a former political journalist turned wine producer and how her background shaped her approach to the wine industry. Learn about the indigenous grape varieties of Puglia, and why they are often overlooked in the wine world.

In this episode the FM3 get into some lesser known territory, that of an Academy Award winning horror film. One of Forever Midnight's Top Dawg Patreon Patrons paid the big bucks and made Jef, Josh and Brian watch and review 1991's Silence Of the Lambs. Historically the crew rarely watch any movie with an IMDB rating above a 6, but holy Hannibal shit, this baby is an 8.6 on IMDB and even that seems low for this beloved fan favorite. So get ready, The boys are finally hopping in a jacuzzi filled to the tippy top with fava beans and Chianti just marinating and talking about what is arguably one of the most loved horror films of all time.
This week I take a fresh look at European Classification Systems, going into detail on the history of how and why they evolved, what the current EU scheme is based on, and what the major wine nations' systems are structured (and how they differ from what the EU would like them to look like!). I discuss: How Europe classified its wines to protect the names of specific products and link them to their place of origin, to the benefit of consumers and producers. A history of wine classifications from the monks in medieval Burgundy to the winemakers of Tokaj in the 1600s to Chianti, Port, and Bordeaux in the 1700s and 1800s. A detailed look at the evolution of the French classification system. I go through the steps that the French took to prevent fraud, protect the origin of their wines, and ultimately create the system off which the EU system is based. I address the EU system with its two main categories: -Wine without a geographic origin (table wine) -Wine with a geographic origin: Protected Geographical Indication (PGI): At least 85% of the grapes used have to come exclusively from the geographical area where the wine is actually made. These wines cover large areas, and a lot of grapes and winemaking methods are permitted. There is only a minor influence of place of origin Protected Designation of Origin (PDO): Every part of the production, processing and preparation process must take place in the specific region. Grapes have to come exclusively from the geographical area where the wine is made. Origin and terroir are essential to the identity of the wine. Then I review the major countries' classification categories France: Vin de France=Table wine IGP, indication géographique protégée (PGI) AOP=appellation d'origine protégée, often called AOC (contrôlée) (PDO) Italy: Vino=Table Wine IGP=indicazione geografica protetta, producers frequently use the old IGT = indicazione geografica tipica (PGI) DOC = denominazione di origine controllata (PDO) DOCG = denominazione di origine controllata e garantita (PDO) DOP = denominazione di origine protetta, the new name, conforming to the EU standard that includes DOC and DOCG. DOP is rarely used (PDO) Spain: Vino de España=Table wine IGP / VT = indicación geográfica protegida, usually called vino de la tierra (VT) (PGI) VC = vino de calidad con indicación geográfica (PDO) DO (DOP) = denominación de origen, sometimes called DOP (PDO) DOCa = denominación de origen calificada (PDO) VP = vino de pago (PDO) Germany Deutscher Wein =Table wine Landwein =PGI Qualitätswein (also called Qba from the 13 regions, PDO) Prädikatswein – Prädikat means special attribute and refers to the ripeness of the grapes and the type of harvest. Pradikat levels: Dry or sweet: Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese Sweet (expensive and rare): Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, Eiswein Other terms: Trocken is dry, Halbtrocken is “Half Dry” or “Off-Dry, “Feinherb” is an unofficial term for off-dry wine The VDP is a German marketing organization that includes many of the country's top producers. Producers can use the VDP eagle and the VDP classifications WITH “Qualitätswein” or “Prädikatswein” · Gutswein: First wines of a wine year to be bottled and sold, Estate-grown grapes · Ortsweine: Village wines · Erste Lage: Premier Cru wine from first-class vineyards · Grosse Lage: Grand cru or highest quality German vineyards. Dry wines within this category are called Grosse Gewächs or GG Portugal (I don't discuss in the show because it follows the French/EU model) Vinho=Table Wine IGP = indicação geográfica protegida, often called vinho regional (PGI) DOP = denominação de origem protegida, still sometimes called DOC, denominação de origem controlada (PDO) _________________________________________________ Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.

Bike racing is back! With the UAE Tour and Volta in the rearview mirror, it's time to jump feet first into what looks to be an epic Classics season that kicked off with Omloop and Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne. Then, it was off to the rolling white roads of Italy's Chianti region for the Strade Bianche, where the women's race climaxed with a duel between Demi Vollering and Anna van der Breggen up the steep final wall better known as Via Santa Caterina. And if you were watching the men's race and waiting to see if Tadej Pogačar could best last year's 80km solo breakaway for victory, he did exactly that but in a very different way, overcoming what looked like a serious crash to notch up his third Strade victory. Today's podcast sees Mike Levy chat with Andrew Hood and Jim Cotton about what makes the Classics so special, how Pogačar could win Milano-Sanremo, and why more people need to think like Tom Pidcock.
How was Brunello discovered? How did the medieval sharecropping system help to shape Tuscany's wine landscape? What's the origin of the iconic black rooster symbol of Chianti Classico? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Susan Keevil, editor of the beautiful hardcover On Tuscany: From Brunello to Bolgheri, Tales from the Heart of Italy. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of her terrific book, On Tuscany: From Brunello to Bolgheri, Tales from the Heart of Italy. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights What inspired Susan to take on the monumental task of compiling and editing On Tuscany? How is On Tuscany different from other books about the region? What was the most captivating wine story Susan uncovered while working on the book? What was the most surprising insight about Tuscany that Susan discovered while putting together On Tuscany? Why did the timeframe pose the biggest challenge in compiling the book? How did Susan discover and select literary gems about Tuscany from historic writers? Why was it important to Susan to write about the Etruscans? What surprised Susan about the ancient Etruscans' relationship with wine? How did the medieval sharecropping system help to shape Tuscany's wine landscape? What role did the Medici family play in shaping the wine culture in Tuscany? What was the crisis of Chianti Classico in the 70s and 80s and how did it redefine the future of Tuscan wines? What's the origin of the iconic black rooster symbol of Chianti Classico? Why does Tuscany continue to dominate media and culture when it comes to wine? What's the history behind the Chianti fiasco? Key Takeaways How was Brunello discovered? Susan says that from 1875 to 1930, the Biondi Santi family hid bottles of brunello bricked up behind a wall. So after the war, they had these wonderful vintages, and they could say, look how it's aged because they didn't know it aged so well at that stage. That was how the discovery of Brunello came about because they brought these cellared wines to feasts and grand occasions with politicians and monarchs. How did the medieval sharecropping system help to shape Tuscany's wine landscape? Susan observes that it made it beautiful to start with, because we're talking about small holdings. Small farmers gave 40% of what they produced to the owner, the feudal lord, but they had to eke out a living too. So they had their plot of vines, their plot of olive groves, and they put up their cypress trees to defend them from the winds. That gave the beauty to the countryside, because it makes it a jigsaw, it gives it texture when you look at the hills. That way of farming has set up the beauty of Tuscany that we know today. But of course, there was a lot of poverty that went alongside it. What's the origin of the iconic black rooster symbol of Chianti Classico? Susan explains that it came from the 14th century when Siena and Florence were warring as to who was going to be the most powerful of those two towns. They had an agreement that they would send out a horse rider - a knight - early one morning, and wherever those two knights met, would be the boundary between Florence and Siena. The Florentine horse rider set off really early, and they got to within 12 miles of Siena. So the black cockerel is all about strength and having the biggest area.
