Last month, our Brunello and Super Tuscan tasting sold out in just days, and we have brought it back by popular demand! Toscana may be most immediately known for its Chianti, but two other styles of wines rival that wine’s popularity: Brunello and Super Tuscans. Sit with us as we explore the best of Brunello, the wine that put Montalcino on the map, and Super-Tuscan wines, a revolution in Italian winemaking so great that it inspires devotion. This sit-down tasting, accompanied by antipasti, will give you the opportunity to explore, experience, and appreciate what makes Tuscan wine so special. We’ll pour Brunellos from Il Palazzone and Castiglion del Bosco--and we’ll serve Super Tuscans from Soldera, Gaja, Fontodi and Petrolo. More than an education, this tasting is pure Tuscan pleasure.

Wines Include:
  • Il Palazzone 2006 Brunello di Montalcino 
  • Case Basse di Soldera 2005 Pegasos 
  • Castiglion del Bosco 2004 Brunello di Montalcino 
  • Ca' Marcanda (Gaja) 2009 Promis 
  • Fontodi 2008 Flaccianello 
  • Petrolo 2007 Galatrona
