Welcome to The Finest Italian Wine. These terms explain the rules for using this website, located at https://thefinestitalianwine.com/. By using the website you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

Who We Are

The Finest Italian Wine is an independent editorial blog about Italian wine, wine culture, food pairings and travel. It is written and run by Kelly Chidi-Ogbonna and is based in Italy. In these terms, “we”, “us” and “our” mean The Finest Italian Wine, and “you” means anyone who visits or uses the website. You can reach us through our Contact Us page.

What This Website Is For

Everything published here is for general information and enjoyment. It is not professional advice of any kind. Articles that touch on health are not medical advice, and you should speak to a qualified professional about your own situation.

Our content about wine is written for adults of legal drinking age in their own country. In Italy that age is 18. Please drink responsibly.

Accuracy of Our Content

We work hard to keep our articles accurate and up to date. Wine prices, availability, producers, laws and regulations change, so we cannot guarantee that every detail is complete, current or free of errors. If you spot a mistake, please tell us and we will look into it.

Copyright and Use of Our Content

Unless stated otherwise, the articles, images, logos and other material on this website belong to The Finest Italian Wine or to those who have licensed them to us. All rights are reserved.

You are welcome to read our content for your own personal use, to share links to our pages, and to quote a short passage as long as you credit The Finest Italian Wine and link back to the original page. Without our written permission you must not:

  • Republish or copy whole articles or substantial parts of them
  • Sell, rent or sub-license material from this website
  • Present our content as your own
  • Display our pages inside frames in a way that changes how they look or suggests they belong to another website

Comments

Where comments are open, you are responsible for what you post. Comments reflect the views of the people who write them, not ours. By posting a comment you confirm that:

  • You have the right to post it and it does not infringe anyone else’s rights, including copyright and trademarks
  • It is not defamatory, offensive, unlawful or an invasion of anyone’s privacy
  • It is not spam, advertising or a way of promoting a business

We may review, edit or remove any comment at our discretion. By posting a comment you give us a non-exclusive licence to display, reproduce and edit it on this website.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will email you the updates you asked for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your details.

Affiliate Links

Some links on this website are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps keep the blog running. Our opinions are our own, and a commission never decides what we recommend.
