Excellent comment. Nothing gets Italian ...Charles:<br /><br />Excellent comment. Nothing gets Italian wine lovers more riled up than this debate on modernism vs. tradition. <br /><br />Certainly the modern-styled Barolos still get much more praise from the influential publications than do the traditional bottlings. We need to remind people of the glories of Barolo aged in botti.<br /><br />I look forward to your comments on this on your blog.tom hylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059595835440742055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840230708436051577.post-77843492226258931662010-01-27T13:49:19.138-06:002010-01-27T13:49:19.138-06:00Iteresting article.

We should be so lucky.<br />When are we going to stop listening to what some producers tell us when the wine tells us something else. There is only one way.I would go on but look for my comments on my blog as soon as Tom Maresco finishes his article on Chianti- it addresses the same issues!obwnknobehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11667105372348730364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840230708436051577.post-58023016259665213792010-01-26T20:08:06.547-06:002010-01-26T20:08:06.547-06:00Nice paean of praise to a great wine. the good ne...Nice paean of praise to a great wine. the good news is, as you know, that more and more so-called modernists (all Italian winemakers now are modernists to some degree or other) are returning to their base in tradition -- for example, Massolino, whom you rightly praise, until fairly recently used a lot more barriques than he now does, and Luca Currado, whom we both like and respect, has in the past shown a pretty heavy hand with new oak. But the tide is turning, and articles like yours can only help it along.tom marescahttp://ubriaco.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840230708436051577.post-59497909256429000552010-01-26T16:06:59.584-06:002010-01-26T16:06:59.584-06:00Jeremy:

I agree that Francarlo is not 100% correct in his assertions and I am glad that my translation has stimulated a dialectic here! :-) <br /><br />Great post and great photographs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
