SICILIAN STYLE, RED WINES OF THE FUTURE, EVERYTHING READY IN MILAN, EVENT AT THE REGIONAL WINE SHOP OF SICILY, SOUTH EAST LOCATION.
Everything is ready and there’s very little time left for this unmissable event, designed to outline the future prospects of Sicilian winemaking and to get to know two of the region’s great protagonists: Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG and Frappato.
All is ready in Milan for “Sicilian Style: Red Wines of the Future,” the flagship event organized by the Enoteca Regionale della Sicilia , the South East branch , scheduled for November 24th at the prestigious venue of The Westin Palace. The day, designed to outline the future prospects of the island’s winemaking, will be dedicated primarily to the region’s red wines, particularly two key players: Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG and Frappato.
Following its success in Rome last May, the Enoteca is bringing the format back to Milan, once again in collaboration with the Consortium and the Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG Wine Route. This will be a crucial opportunity for the press, industry professionals, and the wine-loving public to meet and discuss, and will feature Andrea Amadei, a renowned guest speaker on Decanter Rai Radio2. “Intensity and elegance, tradition and modernity. The wines from the Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG region are now a delicious choice for those who enjoy conscious drinking,” comments Andrea Amadei, “and this is due to their ability to convey a unique terroir, where warmth and luminosity impart strength to the wines while the mineral sands of the soils refine and salt the body, making the sip agile. These wines draw strength from two noble native grape varieties, wonderfully complementary yet at the same time fascinating soloists, completing the picture and describing the most iridescent and baroque winemaking of Sicily.”
“We are thrilled to bring to Milan, the beating heart of Italian wine communication and innovation, an event that for us represents a true manifesto: Stile Siciliano: the red wines of the future . It will not be a simple tasting,” emphasizes Silvio Balloni , president of the Enoteca Regionale della Sicilia, the South East branch, “but an intense day of discussion dedicated entirely to the excellence of Sicilian wines, with a special focus on our extraordinary South East.”
