Thank you to all the friends across the States who organize — and keep planning — a Wine School with us: stepping into your homes and bringing a piece of Italy through our wines and oils is a real honor for my family and my staff, and every time it's a great emotion to share our passion for wine and Italy with you.
The tasting
We start with the Vernaccia
We always start the tasting with a white wine called Vernaccia di San Gimignano: straw yellow tending to golden with age, a fine, penetrating, fresh and fruity bouquet, and a delicate flavour with its characteristic bitterish aftertaste.
Then the reds, from Chianti to Brunello
Then it's time to taste the red wines: first a young wine like Chianti, then a more aged one like Chianti Classico. We continue with our famous Rosso Toscana Super Tuscans, Baldassarre, Cavaliere and Bartolomeo, up to our excellent Brunello di Montalcino.
Don't forget to taste our cold pressed extra virgin olive oil, truffle oil and our gold reserve of balsamic vinegar.
