I visited one in southern France a couple of years ago. One of our party bought some and tried to serve it on board our small boat. Some of us couldn't tell the difference between it and what was served onboard. Such fun it was. It may be heresy to say this in the Italian Notebook, but the French do this as well.

We used to buy wine like this in Sicily - fabulous and so cheap. Never had a bad wine in Italy come to think of it! Maybe the atmosphere has something to do with it!
