Description

From Piedmont to Tuscany, Marche to Campania, Italy is home to some of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. Join your host, Katie Daniel, on a tour of Italy to demystify the classic styles and uncover a few hidden gems, too.

We will arrange for a delivery of a selection of Italian wines (8 x 75cl bottles), a set of glassware and a corkscrew to be sent directly to your home. In addition, we have partnered with Paxton & Whitfield, who will deliver three artisan cheeses to accompany the wines in the tasting. On the evening of the event, you’ll log in via Zoom, where our expert host will take you through a tasting of four of the wines from the eight-bottle selection.

The ticket price includes full-sized bottles (75cl) of all the wines, so you can share the experience with family and friends. We will also include recipes created by our Head Chef, Stewart Turner, which are designed to pair with the remaining four wines from the case and can be enjoyed at a later date.

The virtual tasting will start at 6.30pm and last for approximately one hour and 15 minutes. Once a ticket has been booked, one of our Events and Experiences Executives will be in contact to confirm the details of your delivery.

2018 Verdicchio di Matelica Riserva, Mirum, La Monacesca, Marche, Italy
2018 Mercoledi, Fiano, Vigneti Tardis, Campania, Italy
2015 Chianti Classico, Vigna del Sorbo, Gran Selezione, Fontodi
