Aperitivo Italiano: Young Winemakers in Tuscany

Join us on a tasting tour of Tuscany (no passport required) as we explore four wines produced by the new generation of Tuscan winemakers . Some of them have family histories of winemaking that span hundreds of years, others are relative newcomers with a passion for viniculture—but all of them make fantastic wine. Stefano Milici and Thomas Geninatti of Vinello will guide us through the tasting, which will be accompanied by Italian-style light bites.

What does aperitivo italiano really mean?
An aperitivo (or apéritif ) is often described as being similar to the American happy hour, but in reality, it’s so much more than that. An aperitivo is a ritual, joyous and mood-lifting. It relaxes you after a day of work and prepares you for the night to come. The aperitivo has long been a staple in Italy, and in recent years, has been gaining more appreciation around the world.
