Wine Wednesday ~ The Veneto Region of Italy

Our topic for Wine Wednesday on February 23^rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time examines the wines of Veneto, Italy. This region is in the northeastern corner of “the boot” that describes the peninsula that is Italy. It is generally a cooler climate for growing grapes. The Veneto region produces more whites than reds under the DOC designation and is notably home to the Prosecco and Soave wines. However, continued recognition for other wines from the region, such as Valpolicella, Amarone, Soave and Bardolino, help keep Veneto in the spotlight.

The red wines of Veneto are also identified with several techniques which are used to increase body, structure and intensity to various of the wines. Such processes as Ripasso and Appassimento yield stunning results that we will discuss this week.

So, secure a bottle of wine from this region and join us for Wine Wednesday on February 23^rd at 7:00 pm Eastern time to learn “the rest of the story.” And, as always, please take photos of the front and back labels of your bottle and email them to [email protected] by 11 p.m. Tuesday for inclusion in our PowerPoint slide presentation. We look forward to seeing you!

No reservations needed – simply send your label photos and join us via the Zoom link below close to 7 p.m. Eastern/New York time Wednesday.
