The “Food & Wine Experiences” are part of the new “permanent project” of Collisioni

Posted on: November 27th, 2017 by Mario Ferrero

Every weekend, from October 7th to November 26th 2017, in the Barolo Castle, tastings of the wines of prestigious wine producing companies of Langhe paired with top quality food products.

Strada del Barolo e grandi vini di Langa and Collisioni have sealed a deal to include the Food & Wine Experiences in the new permanent project launched last May at Castello Comunale Falletti di Barolo and entirely addressed to the promotion of the best territories of Piedmont in a tourist perspective.

Aim of the new permanent project of Collisioni is to amaze the thousands of tourists that come here every year so that they will fall in love with Piedmont. In other words, the goal is to better tell the wonderful places they can visit, as well as the great wines and top quality food production they can find and discover.

The project Wine Tasting Experience® fully expresses the soul of this initiative: and here stands the reason of this partnership. On schedule there is a calendar with 16 Food & Wine Experiences, some special Wine Tasting Experiences® paired with top quality food productions of Piedmont. Exclusive tastings addressed to a public of international wine lovers during which the great wines of Langhe e Roero will meet D.O.P. cheeses and cold cuts and other culinary delicacies of the region in an extraordinary explosion of flavours!

The events will be from October 7th to November 26th 2017, every Saturday (in English) and Sunday (in Italian) at 11.30 in the courtyard of the Barolo Castle, know as Castello Comunale Falletti di Barolo.

The topics, that will rotate, are “The taste of the hills” and “The Crus of Barolo”: the first is an introductive journey among the most peculiar productions of Piedmont, with the tasting of four different wines among Arneis, Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo, Barolo and Moscato; the second is a travel marked by the tasting of three different Barolo labels. The tastings last 1.5 hours and include the tasting of 3 or 4 wines, according to the topic, and 3 or 4 tastings of food products.

It will be possible to buy the tickets online on www.winetastingexperience.it or directly on site at a cost of 30 euros per person.

Beside these appointments, the agreement with Collisioni also includes the use of the spaces in the courtyard of the castle for on demand Wine Tasting Experiences®. There will also be a promotional corner with the wines of the members of Strada del Barolo inside the Wine Bar, which will be located in the courtyard of the Barolo Castle.

 

Structure of the Wine Tasting Experiences®

Following the example of the French Ecole du Vin, the meetings go beyond the traditional tasting in the producer’s cellar, a traditional stop for the wine tourists, especially for the opportunity to compare labels of different producers in a single appointment, guided by experts of the territory who will reveal secrets and answer any curiosity.

In fact, the meetings are held by experts of the territory experienced producers, oenologists, sommeliers each one with his personal point of view, from the value of the perfumes in a stem glass of wine, to the pairings between food and wine, up to the traits of the wine in relation with its terroir.

Questions from the audience, insights, tasting tips, wines from a variety of producers: all these elements make the Wine Tasting Experience® a new way to approach the wine knowledge, as well as representing a unique occasion to discover al the details of the production of the Langhe and Roero territory.

In order to make the Wine Tasting Experience® more and more experiential and directly involve participants, the hosts will use supporting videos rich in infographics and interactive maps.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE – With a special consideration for the international tourists, whose number is constantly growing, the Wine Tasting Experiences® are also held in English.

WINE TASTING EXPERIENCE® ON DEMAND – Beside the scheduled appointments, it is always possible to organize a tailored Wine Tasting Experience® reserved specifically for groups of at least six people. In this case, time, date and location can be decided together with the organizers. Guests will also have the opportunity to ask for a different language, like English, French or German, and, of course, choose the wines to taste.
