@ Hotel Casa 400 - Amsterdam

About 40 small Italian wine producers will join The Italian Wine Show 2016 in Amsterdam at Hotel Restaurant Casa 400 on February 1st, from 1 to 6 pm.

The wine tasting and exhibition will cover all the main Italian wine producing regions, and a total of about 150 wines will be showed to trade operators only.

We will pour our wines made with Sicilian indigenous grapes: Inzolia and Nero d'Avola, fresh, stainless steel fermented and refined wines from vintage 2014; Coste al Vento, very intense and expressive macerated Grillo; Microcosmo our field blend of 90% Perricone and 10% Nerello Mascalese; a beautiful vintage of Coda della Foce Riserva; and Albamarina, our passito made with Catarratto grapes.
