<br />
Here a group of ten high-security female inmates and aspiring sommeliers , some of which are married to mafia mobsters or have been convicted for criminal association (crimes carrying up to to decades of jail time), are taking a course of eight lessons to learn how to taste, choose and serve local wines.<br />
<br />
The classes are part of a wide-ranging educational program to teach inmates new professional skills, as well as help them develop a bond with the region they live in.<br />
<br />
Since the 1970s, Italian norms have been providing for reeducation and a personalized approach to detention. However, the lack of funds to rehabilitate inmates, alongside the chronic overcrowding of Italian prisons, have created a reality of thousands of incarcerated men and women with little to do all day long. Especially those with a serious criminal record, experts said, need dedicated therapy and professionals who can help them.

<br />
Here a group of ten high-security female inmates and aspiring sommeliers , some of which are married to mafia mobsters or have been convicted for criminal association (crimes carrying up to to decades of jail time), are taking a course of eight lessons to learn how to taste, choose and serve local wines.<br />
<br />
The classes are part of a wide-ranging educational program to teach inmates new professional skills, as well as help them develop a bond with the region they live in.<br />
<br />
Since the 1970s, Italian norms have been providing for reeducation and a personalized approach to detention. However, the lack of funds to rehabilitate inmates, alongside the chronic overcrowding of Italian prisons, have created a reality of thousands of incarcerated men and women with little to do all day long. Especially those with a serious criminal record, experts said, need dedicated therapy and professionals who can help them.
