etna rosato wins award

25/7/2017

0 Comments

 
Our beautiful Etna Rosato rosé wine from the talented Piano dei Daini Vineyard in Sicily has just picked up another prestigious award as Best Rosé in Italy 2017 at the Gambero Rosso annual review and selection of Italy’s best wines Vini d’Italy  in July 2017.
If you haven’t tried it YET (where have you been?), this rosé, a light copper colour, reveals the character and strength of this terroir. It has excellent minerality and an earthy nuance. Notes of raspberries, strawberries and roses. It is an elegant, well-balanced wine. The grapes are picked by hand and the rich, volcanic soil of Etna combined with the altitude above sea-level (700 asl) gives this wines intense character and complexity without the weight sometimes associated with Sicilian wines.
​100% Nerello Mascalese. Year 2014.
Only 3000 bottles produced.
March 2017 it was awarded the Best Sicilian Rosé at the Sicilian Wine Awards held in Taormina, Sicily.

Wine-related events in italy

7/2/2017

0 Comments

 
​A few wine and food-related events taking place in Italy over the coming months:
‘Taste’
When: 11-13th March 2017
Where: Stazione Leopolda, Florence.
What: an Italian fair dedicated to good eating and good living and frequented by leading lights in the international gastronomic and catering trades as well as an increasingly growing public of passionate foodies. Taste is now in its 12th year and the ‘off-schedule’ events known as ‘Fuori di Taste’ take the theme beyond the fair and extends it throughout the city, creating a long weekend of exquisite taste-bud tantalizing and an opportunity to try new food and wine as well as revisit some old favourites.

Vinitaly
When: 9-12th April 2017
Where: Verona
What: This is the largest wine event in Italy by far. The week-long fair in Verona is the main wine trade event for Italian wines, though the presence of international labels grows every year. This year will be the 51st edition of the event. Beyond the huge trade fair that has its own vast exhibition space outside Verona (free shuttle buses are provided), the whole of Verona is transformed into a wine-tasting event and the city is packed with merry revellers!

‘God Save the Wine’
When: monthly
Where: Florence or elsewhere in Tuscany
What: Extremely pleasant food and wine evenings co-organized by sommelier Andrea Gori and the magazine ‘Firenze Spettacolo’. If you are in the area or planning to be, check these out. Each evening presents some 30 wines chosen by Gori, so you rarely encounter the same label each time, and it’s a great way to tour around the country, vinicologically speaking, without leaving the room. See the latest events on the website http://godsavethewine.com/ (only in Italian).
