After the exciting experience of 2017, this year we want to move Wine Meet-up to an highest level: we are becoming “International”
What does international mean? We are giving a double meaning to this word:
- International, because a lot of Local Guides from all Europe will join us. I know that some of them have already booked a flight. Last year it was international too, as Alejandra was coming from Spain, but this year you will have really the opportunity to see a lot of Top Local Guides reaching Treviso for the event
- International because, if you cannot reach us in Treviso, we are inviting you to join us virtually, organising your own Wine Meet-up
What is Wine Meet-up?
Wine Meet-up is a Food Crawl Meet-up, for exploring in deep the world of wine. Wine is not simply a beverage. Wine is an expression of culture and tradition, a research of perfection through centuries of experience. During the meet-up we will explore all the farm, from the vineyards to the cellars, learning how the wine is obtained, from the wine plant to the bottle.
At the end we will have a “wine tasting”, with a sommelier that will guide us in exploring flavors aromas of different wines
Exploring the territory is very important, if you want to learn about wine production.
Grape cultivation is much more than plant a vine in the ground. Soil, sun, eight, humidity of the area, are factors that can dramatically change taste and production. We will learn a lot about this. During the preliminary Geo-walk, we will move from the Piave river, where we had the 2017 Meet-up, to the hills. We will see how the wine production is changing, from a high grade red (Raboso), to a white sparkling (Prosecco) wine, simply moving for a few kilometers.
In the preliminary Geo-walk we will explore the territory of the First World War, that ended in Italy on November 3, 1918. It will be a great opportunity to celebrate the event
Topic of the year will be Prosecco, a very well known white sparkling wine. We will visit Villa Sandi, a very scenic Palladian Villa, exploring the villa, the underground cellar (one and a half km on two floors) and tasting wine.
After the visit, we will go for dinner, exploring the classic food of the area.
Dietary needs: If you want to attend, and you have some dietary needs, please let us know
Optional: If you want to stay longer, on Sunday 25 we are organising a Photo-walk Meet-up in Treviso, for exploring the Medieval town.
Accommodation: depending of the number of attendees, we will decide if stay in hotel or in some B&B. We are already contacting various hotels in the area for getting a good price for you for the Wine Meet-up. Information about this will be shared privately to the Local Guides that want to attend. More information will follow.
