Beyond Pinot Grigio: Italian White Wine MasterClass
Italy is home to more native grape varieties than any other wine-producing country in the world, yet many wine lovers only scratch the surface of what its white wines have to offer.
Join us for an engaging MasterClass led by Aurora Gurrado, an Italian native and Ethica Sales Manager, as we journey from the Alpine foothills of Piemonte to the volcanic slopes of Sicily, discovering the remarkable diversity of Italy's white wines.
Throughout the evening, Aurora will share her firsthand knowledge of Italy's wine culture, regional traditions, and the unique terroirs that shape these exceptional wines. Along the way, we'll explore both indigenous varieties and international grapes that have found a distinctive Italian expression, highlighting why Italy remains one of the world's most exciting destinations for white wine.
Whether you're an avid collector, an Italian wine enthusiast, or simply looking to expand your palate, this tasting offers a rare opportunity to explore nine distinctive wines that showcase the incredible range, character, and sense of place found across Italy's diverse wine regions.
