Discover the history and culture of Sicilian wine with Bill Nesto and Frances Di Savino, authors of The World of Sicilian Wine. The authors will share the story of Sicilian wine from its ancient roots to its modern evolution in both words and images. They will also provide a substantive appreciation of a vibrant wine region that is one of Europe's most historic areas and a place where many cultures interact.
Bill Nesto is one of only 32 Masters of Wine in the U.S. and is a founder of the Wine Studies Program at Boston University. Francis Di Savino is a practicing attorney who has a background in medieval and Renaissance studies and is Bill's partner in life and on the wine road. Bill and Fran will autograph copies of their book, which will be available for sale. The World of Sicilian Wine has been nominated as a finalist for the Andre Simon Food and Drink Book Awards for 2013.
