📚 “The first mission of a communicator is to tell the story of the origins, vocations, dramas, and successes…”

📝 In our latest blog, we dive into The Art of Wine Storytelling, Professor Scienza’s newest bilingual book, released on the occasion of his 80th birthday.

What’s inside:
🧠 Why storytelling must balance science and the humanities
🎭 The power of metaphor in wine communication
📲 The role of digital tools from blogs to podcasts in shaping brand identity

A masterclass in wine communication from one of Italy’s most respected voices.

🎙 Ep. 2413 of the Italian Wine Podcast and Everybody Needs a Bit of Scienza, where Professor Attilio Scienza takes questions from the international wine community and answers them in his own inimitable way! These episodes are generally in Italian.

🎧 Listen: https://loom.ly/vbZ3mGY

Today’s question:
With your wealth of knowledge and insightful visionary guidance are you confident that the current generation, in particular those associated with heritage names like Antinori, Gaja, Boffa, are interpreting philosophical and vocational practices with due respect combined with what you see as their own current day methodology in the vineyards/production and styling of wines and embracing new problems. Are we going to emerge successful while still respecting the heritage of the past without compromise?

🍷 If you want to learn more about the Professor:
The one who checks all the facts and regulates when we mistakenly type “Verdicchio” in place of “Vermentino.” Attilio Scienza is a full professor at the University of Milan in the Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences where he teaches courses on genetic improvements to the vine; he also teaches Viticulture in the Master’s program of the University of Turin in Asti. He has been the lead for many national research projects in the field of physiology, agricultural techniques, and vine genetics. As the author of over 350 publications on vine and viticulture in national and international journals, you can bet he knows his stuff!
