3 Tastings of Nebbiolo - An introduction, of sorts, to Barolo and Barbaresco
9/22/18 -

A friend who is keen to learn more about Barolo and Barbaresco has asked if we could put together some daytime tastings to illuminate some of the details of the wines. This should be useful and fascinating even for a Nebbiolo nut like myself, as it’s always a challenge to try to focus the subject; assembling a tasting is an exercise in trying to limit the almost endless permutations of theme, vintage, producer, vineyard, etc. We’ve come up with 3 Saturday afternoon tastings, with seating limited to 12 people; you can subscribe to any or all, but the cumulative effect should make it worth coming to all 3 tastings.
These small, seated tastings will be held at Racines (94 Chambers St), on Saturdays from 2:30-4pm – dates and details are below. Please feel free to call me (212-227-1434) if you have any questions. Jamie Wolff
