💘 Star-Crossed Sips: A Romantic Tour of the Veneto
Date: Thursday February 12th
Time: 6:00 PM
From the canals of Venice to the hills of Verona, the wines of the Veneto are steeped in romance, elegance, and timeless allure. Inspired by Romeo & Juliet—literature’s most famous love story—this guided tasting explores the region where passion, place, and poetry intertwine.
We’ll journey through Veneto’s most iconic expressions, from crisp, flirtatious whites to deep, brooding reds worthy of a balcony soliloquy. Shaped by alpine breezes, ancient traditions, and generations of winemaking devotion, these wines balance grace and intensity in perfect harmony.
Join us for an evening of star-crossed bottles, old-world charm, and a little Italian romance—because some love stories are best told in the glass. 🍷💘
