Kickstarted our visit to @cantina_di_filippo with a tour of the vineyards guided by Dora and Flaminia, the two draught horses who are a vital part of the viticultural team! Check out the video to see who else helps keeps the vineyards healthy.
Starting the day with a tasting of Montefalco Sagrantino 2018. Breakfast of champions, no? Now on to my first winery visit of the day!
Waking up in Umbria is quite lovely! Here’s my view from the Hotel degli Affreschi in Montefalco’s historic center. Breathing in all the goodness!
Continuing my love affair with Bordeaux Blanc, which was stoked in a big way by my recent trip to the region with the folks from @millesima Tasted plenty of gorgeous red wines too, but there’s something about the blancs that really fires me up!
Cold and damp weather prompted a pairing of Lemony White Bean Soup with Turkey from @nytcooking and organic Vermentino from southern France. The soup with its splash of ginger, tomato paste, and cumin warms the bones, while the wine promises that the warm weather will return. I’m happy!
Lovely introduction to #virginiawine this afternoon in NYC. Started with a guided tasting of eight wines, which included a brief history of winemaking in the state and an overview of the unique terroirs.
