Aperitivo in BAROLO with Connor Gallagher - Wednesday November 25th
We have run out of stock for this item.
Set in the rolling hills of northwestern Italy, Piemonte is home to some of the country’s most distinctive and age-worthy wines. At its heart lies the small village of Barolo, whose name has become synonymous with one of the world's great red wines. Both a place and a wine, Barolo takes its identity from this celebrated corner of the Langhe, where the Nebbiolo grape finds one of its most remarkable expressions. Alongside it, Barbera and Dolcetto offer their own distinctive interpretations of the region, reflecting the diversity and character of Piemontese winemaking.
Sommelier Connor Gallagher will guide us through a tasting of these iconic Piemontese wines, with Barolo taking centre stage. We’ll explore what sets each grape apart, how vineyard, vintage and winemaking shape their character, and what makes Barolo one of the world's great cellar-worthy wines.
Along the way, we'll get into the questions every Piemonte wine lover wants answered: What makes Barolo so special? How does it compare to Barbera and Dolcetto? Which bottles are drinking beautifully now, and which are worth putting away for the years ahead?
Expect beautiful wines, Piemontese-inspired aperitivo snacks and plenty of conversation.
This is a seated tasting. Includes aperitivo sparkling wine, 5 premium wines, conversation and antipasti.
