Grassroots tastings (#ddb)
Easy-listening stories about wines and their territories as told by producers and native enthusiasts. At Villa Lo Zerbino, Monday June 22nd as a part of TerroirVino main event. Booking is required.



No gurus, no idols! Grassroots tastings: wines and territories described in convivial and understandable talks, by common yet competent people; above all by people who, by birth or by choice, are "intimate" with the area they intend to describe. In addition to this new TerroirVino feature, we will also hold a special vertical tasting dedicated to a Company selected for the excellence of its accomplishments in recent years. The official hashtag for Grassroots Tasting at TerroirVino will be #ddb. Please make note of it.
