Featured Resource
- The Search for the True Chianti (Bill Nesto talk) For most of the twentieth century, the name Chianti brought to mind a generic Italian red table wine in a straw-covered flask, rather than evoking the storied wine region in the heart of Tuscany. Bill Nesto and Frances Di Savino, co-authors of Chianti Classico: The Search for Tuscany’s Noblest Wine, will share the story of their quest to discover the true Chianti.
Featured Resource: Amerine (Maynard) Wine Label Collection
- Amerine (Maynard) Wine Label Collection, UC Davis Library Includes labels from domestic and foreign wines and spirits. Most labels date between 1874-1969, though some date as late as 1992.
