  Daily Italian Wines Class

 


This is a 2 hour approach to the Italian wine regions, a tasty tour of Italy.
In a unique and refreshing way, our sommelier will run you through the major Italian wine regions, appellations and grape varietals. All in all, a great introductory course to Italian wines.
There will be talk about wine making, how to read an Italian label and how to navigate a wine list. You will also learn about wine tasting techniques and strategies for pairing food and wine!

During the two hours you will taste great wines from the North to the South of Italy - wines to illustrate the differences in wine culture, history and tradition, native grape varietals, and finally the terroirs you will find in Italy.

(Together with the tasting, we'll usually give you some bread and olive oil, a slice of Italian cheese and why not some chocolate and taste of the aged balsamic vinegar?! We're not skimpy with the pours, but please be aware that we'll pair wines with some food samples when possible, however, it's not a meal, simply examples of how food and wines pair well together...)

The cost of the class is 40 Euro per person and the class is in English.

Available all year round for a min of 2 people, by prior booking.
