Ep. 2091 Riccardo Bernasconi | Everybody Needs A Bit Of Scienza

  • Summary

  • Welcome to Episode 2091, where Prof. Scienza takes questions from the wine community and answers them in his inimitable way! These shows are generally in the Italian language. Today’s question comes from Riccardo Bernasconi Today’s question: Climate change is threatening our industry with a magnitude and speed that we are struggling to understand and to keep pace with. Among many Italian varieties, which could be helpful to counter the change in the last few years? There were talks and experimentations with the so-called PIWI varieties. Could you give us your opinion on them? And, if any, how is the experimentation with these varieties going in Italy and in which regions? Italian: I cambiamenti climatici stanno minacciando il nostro settore con un’ampiezza e una velocità che fatichiamo a comprendere e a tenere il passo. Tra le tante varietà italiane, quale potrebbe essere utile per contrastare il cambiamento degli ultimi anni? Si è parlato e sperimentate con le cosiddette varietà PIWI. Potrebbe darci la sua opinione in merito e, se c’è, come procede la sperimentazione di queste varietà in Italia e in quali regioni?
