The excellence of Castello Banfi... At Castello Banfi!

The tasting will be itinerant right inside the medieval walls of the Poggio alle Mura Castle with three different moments of tasting and discussion.

In fact, it will begin in the castle courtyard with a tasting of labels from the Champagne Joseph Perrier, the fine Maison distributed exclusively in Italy by Castello Banfi, paired with sushi by Hiro (Osteria di Mezzo di Buonconvento).

We will then move to the Glass and Bottle Museum, where the great wines of Palari, the famous Sicilian company that recently became part of the Banfi family, will be presented together with typical Sicilian dishes.

The evening will conclude in the magical atmosphere of the castle's inner rooms with a vertical tasting of Poggio all'Oro, the prized Brunello di Montalcino Riserva produced by Banfi from a single vineyard and only in vintages considered excellent, which will be offered in combination with typical Montalcino dishes prepared by Riccardo Cappelli, chef of the Taverna Banfi.

During the evening, in addition to the Banfi team, Jean Claude Fourmon and Salvatore Geraci, respectively owners of the prestigious Maison Joseph Perrier and the well-known Palari winery, will be present.

Monoclonal Oenology is an approach to winemaking that focuses on the isolation and fermentation of individual grape clones, rather than mixing grapes from different varieties or clones.
