Spotlight On The Most Interesting Man In The Veneto (or The World?)

Reserve your free tasting slot at 1, 2, or 3 pm!

It's tempting to tell Celestino Gaspari's story by focusing on the Quintarelli connection - he grew up a poor farmer before marrying Giuseppe Quintarelli's daughter and learning winemaking at the most famous and important Veneto estate ever. But as Vinous says, "Celestino Gaspari doesn’t need to fall back on his experience working with Giuseppe Quintarelli, in fact, it seems almost silly to even mention it these days, as the man has created a style all his own."

Today that style includes two lines of wines: traditional Valpolicella and Amarone made like he did at Quintarelli and more innovative wines from native varietals. His "From Black to White" uses an albino Rondinella he found and propagated to make creamy, deep, white wine. And his Kairos blends 18 different varietals - 15 black, 3 white - to deliver full-bodied richness and wild levels of complexity.

These are some of the most exciting wines you'll find anywhere in Italy today, and the chance to try them is not to be missed! So reserve your one-hour tasting slot at 1, 2 or 3pm on Sunday, May 3, and come try them all with Celestino. The tasting is free to attend - just RSVP for one of the three 45 minute tasting sessions and come on by the shop. This is a stand up tasting on the main sales floor and all the wines will be on sale at special, tasting-only, savings. Join us!
