Is it a public service, or simply pretentious nonsense? What forms does it come in? Does anyone pay attention to this stuff anyway? Who is the target audience?</p> <p>On this gray November day, we were greeted by the warm presence of Richard Baudains, a wine writer for <a href="http://www.decanter.com">Decanter</a> who has also contributed to the Arcigolo <a href="http://www.gamberorosso.it/en/">Gambero Rosso</a> guides <em>Vini d&#8217;Italia</em> (Wines of Italy) and <em>Vini del Mondo</em> (Wines of the World).
