JUST ANOTHER HEARTBREAK

RUST ON MY FINGERS

TOUCHDOWN

NOT MY FAULT

DEAD STAR

THROUGH MY VEINS

Welcome to Episode 2451 of the Italian Wine Podcast and Everybody Needs a Bit of Scienza, where Professor Scienza takes questions from the international wine community and answers them in his own inimitable way! These episodes are generally in Italian.
 
Today’s question comes from Júlio César Kunz.
Today’s question(s): 

🇬🇧Brazil's viticulture encompasses three distinct models: the traditional temperate vineyards of the south (e.g., Serra Gaúcha), the tropical systems in the northeast (e.g., São Francisco Valley), and the innovative winter harvests in the southeast (e.g., Minas Gerais). Each presents unique climatic challenges and opportunities. Considering your extensive research in ampelography and climate adaptation, what strategies would you recommend for Brazilian producers to optimize grape variety selection and vineyard management across these diverse environments?

🇮🇹La viticoltura brasiliana si articola in tre modelli distinti: i vigneti tradizionali in clima temperato del sud (es. Serra Gaúcha), i sistemi tropicali nel nord-est (es. Valle di São Francisco) e le innovative vendemmie invernali nel sud-est (es. Minas Gerais). Ognuno di questi presenta sfide climatiche e opportunità uniche. Considerando le tue approfondite ricerche in ampelografia e adattamento climatico, quali strategie consiglieresti ai produttori brasiliani per ottimizzare la selezione delle varietà di uva e la gestione dei vigneti in questi ambienti così diversi?

Life is Strange

so pathetic (cover)

Florian Nivelle, alias Skizy, was a young man like any other who liked to party
and have a laugh with his mates.

But following a disappointment in love, and the consumption of cannabis,
from one day to the next (in the space of a few puffes) something inside him broke.
He had not yet realised that he had become schizophrenic
a serious mental illness

What followed was a veritable obstacle course
supported this music that is rap
by which he was moved, captivated, touched to the depths of his being
He often says that it wasn't he who got into music in the first place
But that it was music that came to him...

Skizy is a rapper and beatmaker

Florian Nivelle alias Skizy était un jeune comme les autres qui aimait fairela fête 
et rigoler avec ses potes. 

Mais à la suite d'une déception sentimentale, et de consommation de cannabis, 
du jour au lendemain, (En l'espace de quelques taffes) quelque chose se brisa en lui
Il n'eut pas encore compris qu'il était devenu schizophrène 
une maladie mentale grave 

S'en suivit alors un véritable parcours du combattant 
qui fut soutenu par cette musique qu'est le Rap
par laquelle il fut ému, captivé, touché au plus profond de lui
Il dit souvent que ce n'est pas lui qui en n'est venu à faire de la musique 
Mais que c'est la musique qui est venu a lui... 

Skizy est Rappeur et Beatmaker
