Event Description
A Taste of Italy - Un assaggio d'Italia
From the great wines of Piemonte, to the classics of Tuscany and the deep reds of Puglia, one evening will allow you to discover the range of fantastic Italian wines and have you thirsty for more.
Maybe you're stuck on always having the same wine from the same region and want to explore a bit more of your favourite country. We will taste seven wines from different regions from right around the country. A fun way to learn about some delicious wines.
There's so much more to Italian white wines than Pinot Grigio, so we will be experiencing some crisp but intriguing white wines from Northern Italy as well as Campania in the south. Red wines feature heavily, and many of the world's classics come from Italy. Piemonte is home to the King of Grapes - Nebbiolo and we will be getting to grips with this wonderful wine. Tuscany boasts Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino amongst many others and a taste of Sangiovese is definately on our list. Reds from Valpolicellla, home to Amarone, as well as more rustic pleasures from the south will also be on our list.
