Assessment comments The following comments were left by the assessors: (edit · refresh) I've just knocked it up into rough sections and added a bit more about the wine and the vine, so it's certainly more than a Stub now (the last Top Priority Stub in the WP?), but it needs a lot more work, particularly on the Italy section, which should arguably be split into subheadings for Tuscany, Emilia-Romana etc. Pictures of Sangiovese grapes would be good, also of vines in the vineyard. Just about all the sections could do with more work though :-) FlagSteward 00:28, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Made some changes & corrections - Brunello di Montalcino is 100% Sangiovese, not a blend.

[edit] A ‘slow ripening wine’

What does this mean? (I tend to think of grapes as ripening and wines as maturing.) -Ian Spackman 15:03, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Towards GA

I think I've probably got this up to a B, at least as far as I'll be able to take it. With some pics, expansion of the viticulture section and a bit more in the Italy section and some general tidying up, it'll be a GA candidate I reckon. FlagSteward 17:11, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
