Wine making as in roman times

An American wine producer has started making wine in huge terracotta amphorae – the way wine was made in roman times it is said. It is Del Dotto Winery in St Helena that has invested in earthenware instead of stainless steel, to get an added historical touch for the wines. 6000 cases are made. winesandvines.com
(PS: We can perhaps add that also Domaine Viret in the Rhône valley experiments with making wine in terracotta amphora (picture).)
