"Virtual Tasting Consorzio Vini Venezia 2021" is the digital seminar program that the Consortium presents to connect sector enthusiasts with local wineries and their wines. A useful tool that will allow winelovers to learn important notions about the product, the vines, the production and the history that has influenced and still intertwines with the wine that is born in this region.
The series of webinars, which will start with the first appointment scheduled for Thursday 7 October , will have as main protagonists the 15 wines made by as many producers who are members of the Consortium with the aim of sharing knowledge, stories, curiosities of the wine sector while maintaining an important focus on the Venetian territory. Speakers of the initiative will be Francesco Pagani, well-known wine advisor & storyteller in the world of wine, able to tell in an engaging and immediate way what is hidden in a glass of wine and Gianpaolo Breda, Ais Venezia delegate who will embellish the meetings by telling history, traditions and new wine trends for tasting. In fact, each webinar will have its focal point in wine tasting at the center of the conversation; the bottle will be delivered to the home of each accredited person with all the material needed for the tasting in order to allow a complete and immersive experience.
"These webinars were created with the aim of bringing the public even closer to the world of wine - comments Stefano Quaggio, Director of the Consorzio Vini Venezia - and this tool immediately seemed like a concrete possibility to do so. Thanks to these digital appointments we will give the possibility to bring the producers of our Consortium directly into contact with the public of enthusiasts or simply curious of this world, in authentic moments of sharing knowledge in the oenological field. The topics covered will be varied: we will talk about the vine itself up to get to the final product and the history that surrounds it. The desire is to give a complete view of Venice and the Venetian as a wine production area involving the winelovers who will access the scheduled meetings ".
