What to expect?

Italy produces and consumes almost more wine than any other country in the world which is no surprise – wouldn’t you? It also boasts well over 2,000 different wine varietals – more choice than you can shake a grissini bread stick at! As much as Blackfriars can’t promise you that many wines, they will take you on a journey of discovery and olfactory overload through some of Italy’s famous, historic & fascinating wine-producing areas. Saluti!
