19/03/22 ‘Gems of Piedmont’ tasting

Piedmont (Piemonte) is a utopia for wine lovers. From some of the world’s most prestigious red wine appellations in Barolo and Barbaresco, to smaller white wine names such as Caluso, there is a seemingly infinite world to explore. As always, our Wine Tour includes great wines, treats from the counters, high quality literature and an informative, entertaining presentation.

Join us in-store for an after-hours tasting on Saturday 19 March 17:00 – 19:00. Self-pour 12 bottles, using our maps and literature to guide you.  James will provide an introductory overview before you begin.
