Are you ready to dive into the polychrome universe that unfolds in little more than 1500 hectares of vineyards in the northeast corner of Italy? Collio, lying at the intersection of history from the Doges of Venice to the sovereigns of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, and at the crossroads of Italian, Germanic and Slavic cultures, is a territory of outstanding wines that never fails to captivate.

Join John Szabo MS on this exploratory journey through the lens of Friulano and Pinot Grigio. Snacks will be served after the presentation.
