Aperitivo Italiano: Young Winemakers in Tuscany

Join us on a tasting tour of Tuscany (no passport required) as we explore four wines produced by the new generation of Tuscan winemakers. Some of them have family histories of winemaking that span hundreds of years, others are relative newcomers with a passion for viniculture—but all of them make fantastic wine. Stefano Milici and Thomas Geninatti of Vinello will guide us through the tasting, which will be accompanied by Italian-style light bites.

What does aperitivo italiano really mean?
An aperitivo (or apéritif) is often described as being similar to the American happy hour, but in reality, it’s so much more than that. An aperitivo is a ritual, joyous and mood-lifting. It relaxes you after a day of work and prepares you for the night to come. The aperitivo has long been a staple in Italy, and in recent years, has been gaining more appreciation around the world.
