Enjoy an exotic Italian escape showcasing Iuli wines.
Let's go to ITALY! Summer Wolff (she's American) and her husband Fabrizio Iuli (he's Italian) make beautiful wine in Monferrato, Italy under the name Cascina Iuli. This class showcases the noble Piedmont region, but not those powerhouse Nebbiolos. Fabrizio and Summer focus on accessible, lovable Barbera and some exotic indigenous varietals that until recently were extinct, such as Slarina and Baratuciat. Summer Wolff, who also is the founder of New York's hip Indie Wineries, will lead this class.
Iuli wines is located in the far north of the Monferrato, in the town of Montaldo di Cerrina. Once a vibrant little town of 450+ souls, today there are only 92. It is set among the last band of dramatic hills and valleys before descending into the rich flatlands of the Po Valley, with the Alps as a backdrop on a clear day. If you're headed to Montaldo, chances are it is to see Fabrizio Iuli. His family figures prominently and colorfully in the town's history.
