Barolo Friday free tasting
25/03/11
Free tasting today at our Bishopsgate shop, 12-7pm
You need to taste these. Not only because Barolo is the best wine in the world.
And not just for a better impression of three very good but very different vintages
in Piedmont. No, today's tasting offers you the chance to get a better grasp on
what style of Barolo you like. Do you prefer the 'soaring aromatics' and savoury
kick of the incredible value Marcarini Brunate? The muscular but fruit-driven style
of Paulo Scavino? Or the Burgundian, perfumed delicacy of Mascarello's Monprivato?
You decide. Or don't - we drink all three. /CC
