Italian Wine Podcast Ep. 2124 Mihai Popescu | Everybody Needs A Bit Of Scienza
Welcome to Episode 2124 of the Italian Wine Podcast and Everybody Needs a Bit of Scienza, where Professo Scienza takes questions from the international wine community and answers them in his own inimitable way! These shows are generally in the Italian language. Today’s question about soil analysis and grape choice comes from Mihai Popescu.
Today’s question:
If you were to choose a new vineyard site, what soil analysis would you do and how would you choose the right grapes? In particular if you want to choose from local grapes of the region.
Se doveste scegliere la zona per un nuovo vigneto, quale analisi del terreno svolgerebbe e come sceglierebbe i vitigni più appropriati? In particolare rimanendo in ambito regionale con uve locali.
