As long-time listeners know, Michael heads off to Tuscany every year and calls into André to report what's new in Italy's most well-known region. This year is different. In this, our first of half a dozen Tuscan interviews you'll hear this year - Michael brought Tuscany back for André and our listeners. Whether it's the unmistakable Italian accent, the wind rolling through the hills, or birds chirping and church bells ringing in the distance, Tuscany comes to life for you.

Today, we talked to Alberto Moretti Cuseri, part of the family that owns Tenuta Sette Ponti. We talk about various parts of Italian wine making and we taste two of their iconic wines.

Thank you to Noble Estates https://www.nobleestates.com/ for helping to get these wines from the winery and into the province.

Michael and André have been talking about the storm brewing for years in regions that have not laid out the proper infrastucture to attract new customers. While they typically have been focused on the canary in the coal mine in California - the storm is already raging in Bordeaux. A region that up until recently has turned its back on their traditional customers and hopped into bed with a lucrative Chinese market... now that that market has dried up people are sitting on a mountain of wines that have no market will to pay the sky high prices they once commanded ... what does the future of Bordeaux hold? Dany Rolland is the co-owner of Chateau Fontenil and is the wife of Michel Rolland.
