Seminars and guided tastings
Live Wine 2017 guided tastings are conceived and lead by Samuel Cogliati. The choice of themes and producers is subjective and due to personal inclinations, availability of products, varied reasons.
Guided tastings last approximately 90 minutes between theoretical moment and actual tasting.
Buy tickets online to the guided tastings (extra € 2 per ticket).
All tastings will be held in Sala Piranesi – Palazzo del Ghiaccio.
