Tuscany in all its Glory

$35.00

Chianti, Brunello, Vino Nobile, Vin Santo, Sant'antimo, Super Tuscan. All incredibly important wine appellations from this one province in Italy. One of the culinary capitals of Europe with some of the most recognizable wine appellations enjoyed in American culture, Tuscany has been a prosperous land to farmers for centuries. In this class we will do a deep dive into several Tuscan appellations (likely cannot do all of them) and what their wine is expressive. We will also cover some history and try to answer questions like: How many clones of Sangiovese do we know of? Or Who was Franco Bernabei and what was his influence on Chianti?

Dario Oman has spent 9 years in the wine industry, starting off with working harvest in Barolo in 2014 after finishing a History degree at Chapman University. Since then, Dario has become a partner at Casa Bruno, which has been a part of Oregon’s importing and wine distribution since 1998. Dario visits European wine countries yearly to maintain relations with producers and keep up to date on vintages and changes in viticulture and production. He also blind tastes in his free time to keep his palate fresh.
