These symbols are the keys to the new Slow Wine guide – finally published in English this month. For those of you wondering if this is related to Slow Food: yes.
The Snail is the Slow Food International symbol; for Slow Wine it indicates a winery that embodies the Slow Food sensibilities including “sensorial, territorial, environmental and personal values.â€
In this guide, the Bottle points to wineries that have consistent high quality throughout their range of wines.
And the Coin, of course, designates wines that are “great values.â€
Where can you get the guide? On Amazon.com, of course.
