World of Wine Tasting: Italy

Italian wine has more personalities than you can count.

One bottle is brooding and demanding, the next easy-going and generous, another sweet and contemplative.

Every village has a favourite grape, every family a story, every region a rivalry.

It’s a patchwork of grapes, regions, and traditions that makes Italy endlessly worth exploring.

At this two-hour tasting, we’ll take you through the icons, the rebels, and the hidden gems of Italy, from the sun-drenched whites of Sicily to the brooding Nebbiolos of Barolo, the velvet-rich Primitivos of Puglia, and the timeless elegance of Tuscany’s Vin Santo.

Our fantastic wine experts will be your guides, pouring seven incredible wines, including a welcome drink, sharing stories of the winemakers, the unique terroirs, and the winemaking traditions that make Italian wines so iconic. So whether you’re a die-hard Barolo lover or just looking to expand your horizons beyond supermarket shelves, this event is for you.
