Discussing specific examples of grape varieties that have seen significant growth (e.g., Vermentino, Nebbiolo, Aglianico, Pinot Grigio) and decline (e.g., Sangiovese, Trebbiano Toscano). 4. Referencing external data and publications (e.g., American Wine Economics) to support observations on grape variety trends. Summary In this episode of ""Everybody Needs a Bit of Shenza,"" part of the Italian Wine Podcast, host Stevie Kim presents a listener question to Professor Attilio Scienza. The query, posed by Sue Tolson, asks about lesser-known Italian regions and native grape varieties poised to gain popularity in the coming years.

The episode notes that varieties like Vermentino, Nebbiolo, Aglianico, and Pinot Grigio have seen substantial growth, while traditionally prominent varieties such as Sangiovese and Trebbiano Toscano have decreased in acreage. These trends are corroborated by data from a publication by American Wine Economics comparing grape variety distribution in Italy between 1990 and 2016.
