Join us this month to learn all about Sangiovese. In this Wine Seminar you will enroll in La Scuola di Eataly for an educational night about Sangiovese, Italy's most widely planted grape. Enjoy a sit-down intensive course hosted by the wine producers and experts themselves to learn about the history, production, and variety of wines made with this esteemed grape. Taste various selections of Sangiovese while enjoying food pairings crafted by our La Scuola chef.

About Sangiovese: Sangiovese, the most widely planted grape in Italy, is at once famous and infamous. We know and love the Tuscan variety, from full-bodied red wines like Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino, and as the catalyst of the Super Tuscan style. However, Sangiovese has not always been admired. Throughout its storied past, the grape has paved the way for Italian wines while simultaneously been at the heart of several viticultural controversies. The first records of Sangiovese can be traced back to the age of Etruscan winemaking, when the grape was named for “the blood of Jove.” This was no trivial nomenclature. Jove, called Jupiter and Zeus in Roman and Greek mythology respectively, was king of all the gods. When we experience the deep flavor, high acidity, and tannins in a wine made with 100% Sangiovese, we totally get it. From then over the next thousand years, the dark-berried vine has been cultivated primarily in its native Tuscan hills.
