The ‘Appenninia Red Wine Celebration Vicchio’ go back to Vicchio on 19 and 20 Might, now in its 2nd edition. An exhibit devoted to white wine, beginning with Vicchio, Mugello and its white wine manufacturers with the goal of broadening towards the whole Italian Apennine area. There are twenty wineries that will belong to the 2024 edition: 16 from Mugello and Valdisieve, while 4 are visitors from other Apennine locations: 2 get here from Faenza, one from Cortona and the 4th from Casola Valsenio. These, nevertheless, are the regional business that have actually provided their subscription: Bacco del Monte, Borgo Macereto, Canneto III, Fattoria di Cortevecchia, Fattoria di Poggiopiano, Fattoria Il Lago, Fattoria San Leolino, Frascole, Fratelli Morolli, Frescobaldi, I Carri, Podere Torcicoda, Tenuta Baccanella, Tenuta Matteraia, Tenuta Monteloro and Terre Alte di Pietramala.

The ticket, costing 15 euros, can be acquired at the Pro Loco of Vicchio: complimentary special glass and glass holder. On Monday, from 10am to 1pm, my masterclass will be held by invite just, for sector operators just. “This 2nd edition– discuss the organizers– intends to unite big and little business in a mix that has the possible to include the whole Apennines, from Liguria to Calabria. The Apennines are a brand-new emerging white wine truth abundant in variety: lands that had actually been mainly deserted have actually had the ability to save ancient vineyards and manufacturers, to which “brand-new” vines (such as Pinot Noir), vineyards and manufacturers are being included. Our intent is for that reason to find if there is a common measure in between these numerous truths, beginning with that of Mugello and looking beyond, preferably towards the whole Apennines. And let’s begin by trying to find this typical element first off in the white wines that the Apennines are revealing: exists an Apennine taste, an Apennine viewpoint, an Apennine reasoning in the production of the numerous brand-new white wines that are being born in these Italian high lands? In the previous edition some possible traces of research study emerged: for instance, Giampaolo Gravina represented the concept of the ‘wild’ as one of the possible qualities identifying the productions of the Apennines. Exist others? Or is variety the real, irreducible unifying element of the Apennine context? However because every white wine task is constantly likewise a human life task, which constantly represents the option of an area in which to reveal oneself and a location to like and to which to devote oneself, we will likewise attempt to highlight the distinguishing characteristics of these life options, those of those who have actually picked the Apennines to develop white wine”.
Personally, I will attempt to check out the existing circumstance of the white wines being tasted, without requiring the look for a common measure. I will let myself be directed by the productions and direct experiences of regional manufacturers to much better comprehend the point of view of these lands and their futurity, in an age in which some historic locations fear for their future, while numerous Apennine vineyards are born and born-again with a lower occurrence of important concerns connected to environment modification.
