What we tasted in April 2025

In April we were very glad to have Nancy Gilchrist MW to present a range of wines from the Alto Adige region of northern Italy. High altitude and high sunshine levels lead to exceptional wines even from grape varieties that some consider to be of the second rank. We had a wonderful exposition of this relatively poorly-known region which has a rather limited production. It was a great evening.
