ANCIENT ITALIAN VARIETALS<br />
being saved from<br />
EXTINCTION<br />
For the past 10 years, a new movement has stirred in Old Italy…<br />
The resurrection of indigenous wine varietals that are being replanted and re-introduced to the<br />
New World market. This is no easy task; the reasons for the scarcity of these vines are partly<br />
because of their lack of commerical appeal as well as the growers would rather grow varietals<br />
hat have higher financial returns. These pioneers are well-respected for their vision and respect<br />
or their families' heritage. These wines see little to no oak; clean and bright whites with wonderfu<br />
aromatics and lively minerality and dark fruity reds full of spice and earth.<br />
