It was a great trip through Umbria and Tuscany. We recorded video interviews at some of Italy's most prestigeous wineries. These personal conversations will be revealed on this feature page over the next several months. It's a great opportunity to discover the "inside stories" that will give you a greater understanding of what is happening in these two outstanding Italian wine regions as they point to the future.

I have had the honor of documenting Felsina's Rancia farmhouse and spectacular vineyards over the past decade. Not only does the vineyard produce outstanding Chianti, it is beautiful as well. - Robert S. Scott
