Everyone is fond of the term “Masterclass” these days, the name holds a certain amount of charm; today we had two centered around the Trasimeno Gamay grape (to learn more about this variety see here). The first masterclass focused on the many faces of Rosé in the region, the second highlighted the red wines made from this confusing and slightly misunderstood grape.<\/strong><\/p>\n

2021 Es…senza – Umbria Rosato IGT<\/em><\/span>

2020 CANTINA NOFRINI Rosso Principe<\/em><\/span> – Trasimeno Gamay DOC

2018 DUCA DELLA CORGNA Poggio Petroso<\/span><\/em> – Trasimeno Gamay Riserva DOC
(Trasimeno Gamay)<\/em>
