From a brilliant Franciacorta IG Live with @napavalleywinegal of @napavalleywineacademy and brand ambassador @giammariovilla
.
Franciacorta is an ideal wine for any point in a meal. The extraordinary quality striven for and achieved by its producers makes this a perfect wine for important occasions: from an aperitif to main dishes, from the simplest meal to the most complex.
In Franciacorta, the dinner table is always a place of great discoveries. This land of great wines has fostered a prestigious restaurant tradition that shifts between tradition and experimentation and has become intertwined with the delicious and deeply-rooted local cuisine.

Thank you Pat Doherty for the great interview and for being featured in Travel + Leisure magazine and most importantly for giving me the chance to talk about Italian Aperitivo history and tradition. The anthropology of Food & Wine is one of my favorite topics to research and talk about. Cheers friends ! #italianaperitivo #aperitivo #travelandleisure

Always proud to teach at UCLA even if it’s via @zoom during challenging times and especially when I can talk about my @comunerimini and the history and tradition of House of Malatesta in the Italian Renaissance. Thanks to Heather Sottong for including me in Food Studies 187: Feast and Famine in Italian Tradition and Literature. More lectures to come! Feasts and famine; from tavern to courts and much more food and wine stories from the Italian Renaissance!
