28.09.18: Italy Revisited
It was the ancient Greeks that named Italy "Oenotria", the "Land of wine", which just goes to show that this extensive winemaking culture goes back a very long way. Each region in Italy has its own set of grape varieties and styles of wines produced. Some of them are more famous, such as the big Barolos and awesome Amarones of the North or the charming Chiantis of central Italy, but there are many other less well-known regions and grape varieties that are equally exciting. Join us on this unique tasting, where Richard Volpi of Armit Wines will introduce us to a wide range of wines from each region, and also explore the history and changes that have occurred over time.

Fratelli Collavo Settolo Organic Prosecco DOC Treviso 2017
The sparkle is fine and persistent, with a light straw yellow colour and greenish hues. Good intensity aroma, with distinct tones of green apple and, to a lesser extent, peach, with floral notes of wisteria and acacia flowers. The bouquet is fine and expresses the fruity properties of this variety. The taste has a slight but pleasant acidity and is well-structured. It is pleasant, harmonious and delicately dry.
Heinrich Burgenland St Laurent 2014
Deep ruby-garnet in colour with a soft touch violet tints. The nose delivers aromas of dark berry fruit, fine vegetal spiciness, a touch of licorice and a bit of grapefruit zest. The palate is juicy with notes of fine forest berry jam and delicate citrus fruit. Fresh acidity and a lovely cherry finish. Harmonious and animated - a perfect food companion.
La Maliosa Rosso Maremma Toscana 2015
A blend of Ciliegiolo and Sangiovese. Their winemaking practices are all natural, using indigenous yeasts to naturally ferment the grapes without the addition of sulphur. The wine is ruby-red, intense, with very balanced tannic structure and fruit concentration. Luxurious and seductive red cherry aromas, long, silky finish, delicious.
