Event Testimonials

Andrea has enabled us to expand our wine vocabulary far beyond the bastion of our favourite red, Amarone. It has been such a delight to get into white & rosé as well as many other red wines.
We had our wine night on the 11th March which everyone enjoyed. All the wines were excellent, the Pinot Grigio Cantanghel and Supertuscans Il Sorvegeliante Rigololccio were of particular interest. Many thanks for your assistance.
