14th – 15th MARCH: BIG PARTY OF WINESURF IN BARI

So Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th March, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., in the beautiful halls of the Rondò Hotel (Corso Alcide De Gasperi 308, just 500 meters from the exit 12 of the ring road) the wine lovers of the center–south of Italy will find what has been called "The Vinitaly of the south".

In effect there will be hundreds of the best wines in the Great Tasting Halls, but we can certainly not compare ourselves with the greatest wine event in Italy.



At the end of this article you will find the names of the wineries that have joined to date and, as you can see, there are many big names.



There will be also a room dedicated to the producers of the DOC Castel del Monte and, last but not least, the two evenings will end in glory with the exaggerated Winesurf Dinners at the Le Giare restaurant of our friend Massimo Lanini (beginning at 9 o–clock!!).

During the two dinners, both with fixed menu (we publish them below) you can degustate, taste, drink, at least 50 (say fifty!!!) wines. From Barolo to Brunello, through Franciacorta, white wines from Friuli and Alto Adige, Chianti Classico, Amarone, without forgetting the great wines of the south. A definitely pleasant way to send to hell the pompous food and wine pairings, and get an overview of big glasses while you are comfortably seated.



But going back to the mornings and afternoons: in addition to the great tasting halls on Sunday there will be the Rural Market and Saturday and Sunday for those who want to eat something there will be "Il Canto dei Bischeri" to prepare delicious dishes.

We will never forget Culture with a capital C: in effect, on Sunday morning we will present a very special book to be followed by a very particular tasting, a comparison of old vintages of great Chateau of Bordeaux for France and Sassicaia for Italy.



Then, two days with so many beautiful things, all focused on wine.



The daily ticket to the great tasting halls is set at 15 euro with glass and glass holding for free (discounted price for ONAV, AIS, FISAR, Slow Food and FIS members, 10 euro).
