A wine magazine published by the Slow Food association after the collaboration with the Gambero Rosso wine guide was terminated in 2009 after more than 22 years. The first issue "Slow Wine 2011" was published at the end of 2010. The wine critics Giancarlo Gariglio and Fabio Giavedoni are responsible for the magazine. Twenty-one thousand wines from 2,100 producers were tasted by 200 tasters, including 1,850 wineries with 8,400 wines.
Included are brief descriptions of the history and philosophy of the company, the vineyard sites and wines that were particularly well received. There is no points system, but the three symbols bottle, euro symbol and snail are used for producers and wines. The evaluation criteria are the ecological mindset and philosophy of the producers, the grape varieties and the regional roots of the wines and wineries.

If I were to rate websites, you would deserve the highest rating. It is rare to come across websites that provide such a large amount of data and are still so intuitive to use. Respect for the lovingly researched and informatively prepared encyclopedia. Keep it up!
