Senior Editor of Vinous and Creative Director of Collisioni's Wine & Food project (Italy's largest music, literature, wine, and food festival), he is also Director of the Indigena festival (devoted to Italy's native grapes and wines) and Director of 3iC (an international wine and food study center in Barolo). In 2018, he was nominated to the prestigious Accademia della Vite e del Vino, Italy's official association of viticulture and enology researchers, university professors, and educators.
"Part walking Wikipedia, part philosopher, Ian D'Agata supplies a wealth of information on Italian wine--both fact and lore--and his latest book is a must-have and a compelling read for all lovers of Italy, Italian culture, and Italian wine. Ian's unique voice and unparalleled access to Italy's most famous, most infamous, and those not-yet-discovered winemakers and vignerons tells a fascinating story of Italy's history through the lens of agriculture and winemaking."--Laura DePasquale, Master Sommelier
