Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th April in Monforte d’Alba Online pre-sale of tickets is open! The Masterclass programme Valtellina with its Nebbiolo wines, special guest of the event.
As announced, “I grandi terroir del Barolo” is back, an initiative created by Go Wine, now in its sixteenth edition and scheduled for Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 April in Monforte d’Alba, one of the most important centers of the Langa del Barolo.
The event will take place in the elegant rooms of Palazzo Martinengo – Moda Venue (Via Cavour, 10), in the historic centre of the town.
The event has further grown in recent editions, maintaining intact the character that inspired its birth: an extraordinary opportunity to learn more about Barolo and its territory, with the distinct geographical mentions that make up the production area at its core.
Valuing with tasting cellars that produce Barolo through distinct labels that tell different sites and parts of the territory. Exalting the soul and peculiarity of Nebbiolo, interpreting the diversity as a wealth that invites to better understand the land and the greatness of the denomination.
The program includes tasting tables, meetings with the wineries, exclusive masterclasses and visits to the cellar: a formula that invites you to a delicious weekend in the Langa of Barolo to deepen your knowledge “in the field” of the new vintage of one of the greatest wines in the world.
The Consortium for the Protection of Valtellina Wines is a special guest at the event
The Consorzio di Tutela dei Vini di Valtellina will be present at the event to tell about terroir and wines, with a special focus on its sub-zones that characterize a unique territory.
They like to call it the “Nebbiolo of the Alps”, it represents a territory with a great wine culture, it shares the presence of Nebbiolo with the Langhe
Its landscape is unique, with the many dry stone walls that can be seen along the valley and which make it the largest terraced wine-growing area in Italy.
As the Consortium likes to define it … “wine in Valtellina is the result of the continuous dialogue between the Alps, the energy of the sun, the breeze of Lake Como and the agricultural activity among the terraces”.
We will talk about all this and… taste it on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th April.
Two masterclasses will be dedicated to the comparison between Barolo and Valtellina, while a tasting table will present a selection of Valtellina wines from different cellars in the area.
