Compare grapes and styles of wine from the two countries we love so much!
Antonio Mauriello, owner of DiVino Wine Studio and Karen LaVigne, from
Selection de LaVigne and Slow Food Niagara leader will guide this unique
tasting. Different styles of wines? Different grape varieties or terroirs?
In Italian tradition, harvest time is when Farmers gather together to celebrate the earth's bounty, catch up with their neighbors, and offer their produce. It is a time of merriment, celebrating the end of the intense work involved in planting, growing, and harvesting. Wine -- being such an integral part of any gathering of friends -- has its own celebratory harvest tradition. Fresh off the vine grapes are poured into huge vats, and crushed in the first stage of this centuries old art form. View all La Vendemmia events at www.prestonstreet.com/lavendemmia/
