BE AMONG THE FIRST TO TASTE THE LATEST TOP WINES FROM ITALY
Great Wines of Italy – En Primeur Italy 2020 at James Suckling Wine Central is a curated tasting of wines recently released or soon to be released from top Italian producers, as well as some hand-selected outstanding vintages, presented by James Suckling. The tasting will present more than 100 wines from 50 top Italian producers from the country’s most iconic wine regions, including Alto Adige, Piedmont, Tuscany, Campania, Veneto, Friuli, Sicily and Sardinia. This is a true miss-it-miss-out opportunity to taste some of the most exciting wines currently made in Italy.
Besides giving you the chance to be among the first to discover the latest releases, you will also be able to taste some of the wines from the record 2015 vintage. That vintage has been recognized as a classic across many wine regions. But the winemaking excellence expressed that year is best seen in Italy, where perfect conditions gave rise to many perfect wines: two Italian 2015 wines occupied the top two spots in the JamesSuckling.com Top 100 Wines of the Year list for 2019! At the tasting, you have the chance to taste three 100-point perfect-scoring wines.
James will be present too, to discuss the tasting and vintages.
Our team of sommeliers will organize and present the wines you wish to taste.
