Welcome to the Next Generation and Episode 2335 of the Italian Wine Podcast. Today, Giulia Stocchetti interviews the entrepreneur Tommaso Inghirami. More about today’s guest: The Inghirami family provides living proof that success is synonymous with curiosity and creativity. With Tommaso, one of the most illustrious surnames in Italy in terms of clothing enters its third generation with enthusiasm. Despite his age, the 35-year-old entrepreneur has been combining for 7 years now the two souls of the family business, which is in every way an ode to Made in Italy. On the one hand, there is the shirt production of Inghirami, the famous shirt company founded by his grandfather Fabio Inghirami in 1949 and which is today one of the founders of the Associazione dei Marchi Storici d’Italia. On the other, Fattoria di Grignano joins this picture with wine and olive oil production. Situated on the Florentine hills of Pontassieve, this former Medici estate is a thriving 600-hectare winery that has been employing innovating and sustainable winemaking techniques since the 1970s, in order to produce fine wines reflecting the identity of their territory of origin. The Inghirami family combines the historical excellence of Tuscany’s wine and olive oil with the craftsmanship of shirts and suits.

Ep 2333 Wim Sas Part 1 | Everybody Needs A Bit Of Scienza 13:10

Welcome to Episode 2333 of the Italian Wine Podcas t and Everybody Needs a Bit of Scienza, where Professor Scienza takes questions from the international wine community and answers them in his own inimitable way! These episodes are generally in Italian. Today’s question comes from Wim Sas. Today’s question(s): Can you specify the relationship between Vermentino and Furmint? In Episode 882, I heard Ivan Giuliani from Terenzuola mentioning Vermentino, Pigato, Favorita, Rolle and Furmint in the one sentence as the same grape? This was new for me since I thought they were only DNA related and not the same. Potrebbe specificare la relazione esistente fra Vermentino e Furmint? Nell’Episodio 882, ho sentito Ivan Giuliani di Terenzuola affermare che Vermentino, Pigato, Favorita, Rolle e Furmint sono la stessa varietà. E’ stata una novità per me, perchè pensavo avessero solo dei tratti del DNA in comune, non che fossero la stessa uva. More about Professor Scienza: Professor Attilio Scienza is the one who checks all the facts and regulates when we mistakenly type “Verdicchio” instead of “Vermentino.” He 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!
