Wine OR Wine & Food

Join us at the Upstairs @ Di Bruno Bros. for an informative and engaging look at the wines, cheese and cuisine of Tuscany, guided by Marnie Old, one of the country's top sommeliers and host of "Philly Uncorked" on Philly.com

Tuscany has grown from modest winemaking roots to become one of the world's finest wine regions. Here "Old World" traditions are met and mingled with modern "New World" techniques to yield wines that combine " the best of both worlds".

Discover how Tuscan vintners work their magic with both native Tuscan and international grape varieties and how to interpret Italy's confusing wine labels. Taste the wines with local specialties of the region and see for yourself why this region produces some of the most food-friendly wines in the world. Marnie's relaxed approach to wine education allows guests to sample and graze at their own pace. Don't miss this delicious tasting of Tuscan wines and foods - from crisp, refreshing whites to deep luscious reds, from Chianti to Brunello.
