Exclusive Events
Italy, Top to Heel
$25 + HST per session; purchase 3 and get the 4th session FREE (value pack)
Travel from north to south Italy by wine glass. From Veneto to Sicily, with stops in Piedmont and Tuscany, you'll taste delicious wines, each made from unique, wonderful grapes. Both Reds and Whites will be featured in each tasting.
Veneto
April 13th 6:30pm
$25 + HST (can value pack)
Veneto is among the foremost wine-producing regions, both for quality and quantity. The region counts over 20 DOC zones and a variety of sub-categories, many of its wines, both dry and Spumanti, are internationally known and appreciated. The most appreciated wines in the region come from the provinces of Treviso, Verona, Padova, Venice, and Vicenza. The area around Verona, with its temperate climate and hilly surrounding, is believed to have cultivated grapes since the Bronze Age.
Piedmont
April 27th 6:30 SOLD OUT
$25 + HST (can value pack)
With 46 different DOC and four DOCG areas, Piedmont is the region that produces the largest number of best known, noble, and world-appreciated prize-winning wines, such as Barbera, Barolo, Barbaresco, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo, Grignolino, Malvasia and Asti Spumante among others. Another distinguished characteristic of Piedmont is that most of its wines are produced on family estates made up of relatively small parcels of land.
Tuscany
May 11th 6:30 SOLD OUT
$25 + HST (can value pack)
The hilly soil and the weather conditions of Tuscany are ideal for grape growing and, with the passing centuries, the numerous types of grapes grown gave rise to some rare and much loved varieties. Nowadays, the most grown variety is the noble Sangiovese, which is often combined with small amounts of locally grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo and other grapes into wonderful blends such as the Brunello di Montalcino, Morellino di Scansano, Carmignano and, of course, the signature Tuscan wines, the Chianti and Chianti Classico, which probably are the best known Italian wines in the world.
Southern Italy
May 25th 6:30
$25 + HST (Free if you purchased the value pack!)
Southern Italy or Mezzogiorno, has gone from producing bulk, generic wines to crafting exciting wine from local varietals. We will explore some of the lesser known regions of this particularly hot portion of Italy, including the thriving wine industry of Sicily, and the dwindling vineyards of Sardinia.
