Italy - Brunello di Montalcino Wine Tasting | Amathus Hampstead

Montalcino: a Tuscan expression of Sangiovese, where altitude and diverse soils create wines of remarkable elegance, and longevity. Not just another Italian red, this is where Tuscany gets serious! Join us for an exclusive masterclass hosted by Val di Suga, an estate that has been exploring the different expressions of Montalcino since the late 1960s. With vineyards across three distinct slopes of the appellation, Val di Suga offers a fascinating perspective on how soil, exposure and microclimate can shape the Tuscan grape, Sangiovese. From youthful energy of Rosso di Montalcino to the depth and complexity of Brunello, this masterclass will take us through the wines, vineyards and philosophy of the estate. The tasting will begin with a welcome glass of Franciacorta, followed by a line-up of five wines: Val di Suga Rosso di Montalcino, Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino, Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino Vigna del Lago, Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Granchio, and Val di Suga Brunello Vigna Spuntali. Curated snacks will accompany the tasting.
