The modern history of Italian wine, which began between the 1960s and early 1970s, narrated by its main protagonists.

Starting from its origins in the 1960s and following its evolution, the journey takes in the viticulture landscape, the many international markets, the winemaking revolution, the different societies and movements, the wineries (inner sanctums where the wine ritual is celebrated), and even Italian cuisine and its global success.
