Nina Cerullo DipWSET showcases the fresh whites, perfumed Sangioveses and an iconic coastal red at this tasting exploring all things Tuscany.
Event details
Tuscany stands as Italy’s most iconic and celebrated wine region. Renowned for its rolling landscapes and (predominantly) red wines, the region showcases the pinnacle of Sangiovese-based wines from the hills of Chianti Classico and the breezy Brunello di Montalcino, as well as ultra-premium and ultra-popular, ‘Super Tuscan’ wines, which, despite being a relative recent category, have earned a place in the global fine wine stage.
In the third instalment of our Italian wine series, expert Nina Cerullo DipWSET will guide you through a selection of top Tuscan wines, including one of Italy’s most famous fine wines - ‘Sassicaia’ - showcasing the consistency and quality that can be found in this world-famous region.
We will provide some fine Italian cheese and charcuterie from Crouch's in Borough Market to taste alongside the wines.
This tasting is part 3 of Nina's Italian series. The session can be booked individually, or you can save £55 by booking the series.
