    I gather that "exposition" is the direction that a vineyard faces? I have hard that term twice in your Italian videos. Is this a relatively new term or a term mostly used by Italian viticulturists? Is it only direction or does it indicate slope as well?

    Good question. I think it is a literal translation in Italian of in what direction the vineyard faces the sun.
