Radici Wines

At the end of the year – a time to evaluate the results and to set new year’s resolutions, we can reasonably affirm that what we’ve done in collaboration with the local administration, the producers, all the wine connoisseurs and  ProPapilla Association, as well as the way we’ve strongly supported our idea, have made Radici one of the most representative and significant brands of South Italy.

The fourth edition of the European Wine Bloggers Conference (EWBC 2011) is taking place between Franciacorta region and Brescia. From next 14^th to 16^th October the ancient Benedictine Monastery of Saint Giulia, one of the greatest museums of art, will be the location of the most important conference for wine lovers and experts whose main interest has become wine and the way to spread its culture through blogs. To realize how this conference can attract visitors, let’s consider that it has been an almost immediate sellout (more than 250 delegates from 32 countries are expected) and that an interesting BarCamp about wine (to be held on the 13^th) has been added to the original programme.

Radici del Sud’ basis was laid last November in Altamura following the extremely successful Radici Wines Experience and the fifth edition of Radici 2010 designed by Nicola Campanile. Here Nicola Campanile, the organizer, Luciano Pignataro and Franco Ziliani working as tasters at the time, were proposed to make also Campania, Calabria, Sicily and Basilicata join the competition. The three accepted enthusiastically and started a perfectly organized  managerial group working on Radici del Sud’s project.
