Ep. 1115 Giulia Di Cosimo | On The Road With Stevie Kim
Welcome to episode 1115, another installment of 'On The Road Edition', hosted by Stevie Kim. Today Stevie is with Giulia di Cosimo of Argillae Winery, she is the new Vice-President of the Orvieto Consortium. Together they discuss \u201cBenvenuto Orvieto\u201d a day of events that introduces the new Vintages as well as a masterclass on Orvieto DOC.\nMore about \u201cBenvenuto Orvieto\u201d:\nThe location (the Mancinelli theatre, in the city center), for the \u201c Benvenuto Orvieto 2022 \u201d event was chosen by the Orvieto Wine Consortium\nIt was an intense day, made up of territory, history and tastings. The day started in the theater with the presentation of the Consortium and its objectives. A DOC created in 1971; today it has 1956 hectares of vineyards and a production of 11 million bottles . It is a wine-growing area that starts in the north from the parts of Fabro and extends towards the province of Terni, even encroaching into Lazio. On the other hand, the area relating to the \u201cOrvieto Classico \u201d appellation is more restricted .\nThe day had a full program of events and promotional activities and included an experimental program with the University of Tuscia that began with a study on the four terroirs of Orvieto, volcanic, clayey, sandy, alluvial. Four terroirs that were the subject of the first tasting, with an \u201canonymous\u201d label which took place in the Theater.\nTo complete the day, there was an interesting speech by Prof. Attilio Scienza on the close relationship between the evolution of viticulture and the Via Francigena and, finally, on the potential of the \u201csweet wines \u201d of Orvieto; also because the presence of \u201cnoble rot\u201d in the Orvieto area could be thought of as a real icing on the cake\u2026.\nMore about Orvieto Consortium:\nwww.facebook.com/OrvietoDOC/\nMore about the host:\nStevie Kim hosts Clubhouse sessions each week (visit Italian Wine Club & Wine Business on Clubhouse), these recorded sessions are then released on the podcast to immortalize them!
