An in-depth look at the economic effect that the pandemic has had on tourism in the Amalfi Coast and on the Italian economy in general.

Bodegas Valentin Bianchi: Italian Wines Influencing the World

A wine lunch in NYC to taste a selection of Argentine wines from Bodegas Valentin Bianchi showed how much Italian culture has influenced the world. A great reminder of how grateful I am that Italians continue to bring their passion for life wherever they go and inspire others to give themselves over to the love of food, the love of wine and the love of living a good life.

Brian Larky’s Italian Wines, When People Live Up to Their Reputation

It can be overwhelming to look for high quality, small family Italian wine producers. Since the US market is saturated with wine producers from Italy, it can be a Herculean feat to pick a special wine at a fair price.

Ferrari Trento, Italian Mountain Sparkling Wines Fly High

A recent visit to Trento, Italy, to the sparkling wine producer Ferrari Trento, placed me in a position where I had to face one of my biggest fears – riding in a helicopter. In the end, this life changing experience taught me that sometimes it is worth taking a leap of faith to experience some of the best things in life, such as Trentodoc sparkling wines.
