What To Expect
Once you sign up - we will include you as one of the panel of tasters. This is not a recording where you watch the host tell you what you should like… this is a discussion about the wines, sometimes with the winemaker, but most of the time wine expert and host Ian Blackburn gets to the core information about the winery - about the wine we are tasting and unravels the wine for discussion… sometimes we all agree the wine is NO GOOD! Sometimes we agree the wine is superior in the line up… each event comes with its own discoveries and the guests (YOU) are the tasters… ENJOY tasting with one of the top experts in the marketplace - To learn more about Ian - ClickHere.

FEATURED WINES:
To be announced.
Changes to the wines may occur at any time, wines do run out, vintages can go extinct, and we react by making the needed changes as events occur.
The Antinori family has been committed to the art of winemaking for over six centuries since 1385 when Giovanni di Piero Antinori became a member, of the “Arte Fiorentina dei Vinattieri”, the Florentine Winemakers’ Guild. Each vintage, each plot of land, each new idea to be advanced is a new beginning, a new pursuit for achieving higher quality standards. As Marchese Piero loves to say: “Ancient family roots play an important part in our philosophy but they have never hindered our innovative spirit”.
Silvio Jermann
Silvio Jerman is the winemaker that is most representative of Friuli Venezia Giulia. His wines may be much talked about, criticized or loved, but one thing is certain: they can be found all over the world. Though Silvio is still far from his fifties, he has already gained extensive experience, and not only in Italy: the success and great results he enjoys today derive from years and years of hard work and commitment. The wineries and the estate are spectacularly picture perfect in every detail: the wines, pleasant and refreshing with exceptional length are the mirror of their winemaker. This time Jermann has managed to create two spectacular wines and another that keeps them good company “as usual” as Silvio would say. I’m talking about Vintage Tunina 1997, a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Picolit and other aromatic varietals, which ranks high as a “top wine”. It delivers a great body and is very pleasant, the nose is serious and complemented by a rich complexity of aromas of tomato leaf and fruit, the bouquet is well-developed and fruit-driven, incredibly elegant. Capo Martino 1997 is a blend of Tocai and Pinot that have aged in oak barrels, offering an extraordinary array of fruity aromas; it is “layered, richly extracted, with a full body, flavorsome, balanced and elegant ...” these are some of the comments made by eminent experts. Once again, Dream 1997 is confirmed as one of the best wines: both fruit-forward and flowery, perfectly balanced, light and spicy. “Among the single varietal wines, we have found an incredible Chardonnay and definitely appreciated the Afix Riesling, the Pinot Grigio and the Vinnae.
