As linked in Wine Terroirist, some interesting articles on Italian wines:
SuperBaroloVine
is a RobertCamuto interview about a super Barolo vine that LucianoSandrone, called Talin, they have propagated & are now making a Talin wine. It gives a very intensely-colored Barolo. Thank god we can have a Barolo that plays well in Monktown and no more those wussy/wimpy pale-colored Barolos.
ViettiTimorasso
is a Forbes article on how Luca Corrado Vietti has fallen in love w/ Timorasso, found a vnyd, and is now making varietal Timorasso, from some top vnyds in the ColliTortonesi.
Iand'Agata:AltoAdige
is a Vinous article by Ian d'Agata on wines of the AltoAdige. Nothing terrible profound, but rather interesting.
