Guided tasting of six Italian wines from the north to the south of Italy, with stories about the regions, grape varieties and winemaking traditions.
Flynn's Delicatessen is hosting A Taste of Italy, an Italian wine tasting on Saturday 7 November, from 6pm to 8pm. It's a guided journey through the country's wines, starting with the vineyards of the north and working down to the sun-soaked south, taking in the regions, grape varieties and winemaking traditions that make Italy such a place for wine lovers. Six carefully selected wines are tasted along the way, each paired with stories about the people and the places behind the bottle, plus some practical tips for choosing Italian wines yourself.
The evening is pitched as relaxed and informal, for devoted Italian wine enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike. There's no prior knowledge needed and no wine snobbery, so it's as much for someone who just likes a glass of red as it is for someone who can talk about terroir. You'll work your way through six different bottles over the two hours, with the stories and the tips filling in the gaps between pours.
Flynn's Delicatessen runs hands-on food and drink courses rooted in a respect for quality, sustainability and the connection between people and what they eat. They keep their classes small, which leaves room for personalised guidance, and their programme grows from participant feedback. Beyond cooking, the deli stages wine tastings and workshops like butchery, charcuterie and sausage-making, so this tasting sits alongside a wider range of things you can learn there.
