DESCRIPTION:

Italy is the home to over 500 native grape varieties. Surprisingly, many remain under the radar despite being rewarding in the glass. During this session, we will explore a white and a red from central and southern Italy. For the white, we will taste a top example of a luscious white from Campania. For the red, we will venture back to our beloved Tuscany but look to one of the supporting grapes elevated to a starring role. This online session will be led by Tyler Colman, Ph.D., a leading wine writer and wine educator who offers wine experiences through Tylermade Tours.

Suggested viewing: Tucci in Italy, S1 E1 – Tuscany

The selected wines are available through Horseneck Wines. Horseneck Wines is graciously offering a flat rate of $30 for up to 12 bottles. Take advantage of this offer and load up a case!
