David Rocco's Dolce Vita

Wheat, Flour, Pasta (5x13)

Air date: Nov 29, 2015

At Villa Poggio Bartoli, the wheat harvest is a big deal. To this day, the threshing of the wheat is done the old-fashioned way using machinery from the 1920s, and the workers aren’t so young themselves! David lends a hand in this time-honoured tradition, and learns the ins-and-outs of producing what is arguably the world’s most important grain.
