Welcome to Episode 1266, of #everybodyneedsabitofscienza. Today Stevie is with our favorite Professore Attilio Scienza in Campania, in Irpinia. They discuss the grape varieties, the territory, and the wine evolution of this important region. Scienza tells the three most important things to know about Campania wines and its territory that has a great future in the wine world. The Consortium “Tutela dei Vini dell’Irpinia” was established as a voluntary, non-profit association, on 2003. Less than 50 kilometres from Naples, thanks to the conformation of its territory, Irpinia is a land devoted to the production of fine wines. The peculiar orography of the territory results in particular microclimates, varying from area to area, which allow different types of wines to be produced. In fact, Irpinia, today, is the province in Campania with the highest concentration of vineyards and can boast the presence of three DOCG wines: Taurasi, Greco di Tufo and Fiano di Avellino. The mission of the Consortium is to protect and enhance these wines, vine products, vineyards of Irpinia as a a national cultural heritage. To learn more about Consorzio “Tutela dei Vini dell’Irpinia” visit: consorziovinidirpinia.it/eng/... If you want to learn more about the Professore: 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!

Guest-Moderator “I'm Wayne Young, a transplanted American living and working in Friuli Venezia Giulia in Italy since 1998. After being awarded the WSET Diploma and stints working for Wine Spectator Magazine and as a somm at Joe Bastianich's Becco restaurant in New York, I decided to try my hand at cellar work. My plan was to return to New York and start a new chapter in the wine business after my first harvest... But three months became 4 years, and after marrying my Italian girlfriend, I moved to Udine permanently in 2002. I LOVE the wines from this region, and I love being able to have these conversations with the people who create them.” To learn more visit: Facebook /Waynegrape Instagram /Waynegrape Twitter @Waynegrape LinkedIn Wayne Young Website LaTavernaFriuli.it About today’s guest producer: After graduating in Oenology, Marko Primosic joins the family business in 1989, followed by his brother Boris a few years later. Marko helps his father Silvan in the management of the cellar, and he is especially involved in the creation of the quality selections that give birth to the white field blend “Klin”. Marko is also very committed to valorization of the local grape variety Ribolla Gialla. The work in the cellar is complemented by the commitment in promotion and sales of the Primosic wines in Italy and abroad: Marko becomes the sales director of the winery, and at first he travels through Europe, then he flies to America and Asia also. In the United States, he starts to be known as “Mr. Ribolla Gialla”, the winemaker who brought to the fore a grape variety that before was unknown overseas. In the 2000s he is more and more involved in the Collio Consortium: for several years, he is the vice-president of the Collio Consortium and becomes an ambassador of the Collio territory all over the world. In 2007, Marko Primosic and Stanko Radikon are the founders of the Association of Producers of the Ribolla di Oslavia (APRO). Thanks to this association, the winemakers in Oslavia share their experiences about Ribolla Gialla fermented on the skins and they work together to promote the ”Orange wines” from Oslavia. In an historic moment when more and more attention is given to sustainability and natural wines, the Ribolla di Oslavia made by Primosic winery is awarded by the most important wine guides and magazines.
