VERONA, Italy, July 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Italian Wine Unplugged 2.0 audio recordings began in 2023, with the first episode released on January 23. The series is composed of 76 episodes with new content released on a weekly basis. The readings have been organized into smaller, digestible bites, taking listeners on a systematic and scientific journey through Italian wine.

The book draws on the work of an international community of Italian wine ambassadors, led by Master of Wine Sarah Heller, who contributed a unique introduction to Italian wine tasting, and the internationally renowned Professor Attilio Scienza, a polymath and gifted communicator who shares his expertise on genetics, geography and geology, as well as history, anthropology and classical mythology.
