After the public and critical success of the first edition, the appointment with “
Revolution in Montespertoli
“. The “revolution,” which also aroused great interest last year because of its provocative title, is carried out by theMontespertoli Winegrowers Association. Established in 2022, it brings together 17 farms united by agricultural practices
sustainable
and from the desire to promote an area among the most viticulturally important in Tuscany, whose wine vocation has not, until now, enjoyed the attention it deserves.
The event, sponsored by the City of Montespertoli, is open to the public and will take place on the day of Sunday, November 12 on the premises ofl Montespertoli Vine and Wine Museum. Here, at the respective tasting tables, you can personally meet the 17 member winemakers, taste their wines and purchase them.
There will be no shortage of in-depth discussions again this year with a
masterclass
on the different nuances of Montespertoli wines, conducted by the
wine expert
Bernardo Conticelli
.
Lwednesday, november 13 will, however, be by invitation and dedicated to the journalists and to the trade operators with a tasting led by Giampaolo Gravina, a writer and critic among the most appreciated in the national scene. This will be a time for an in-depth analysis not only of the Association’s journey but also of the distinctive elements that connote this area.
In short, 2023 also offers a content-rich program demonstrating the desire to raise awareness of an industry that is an excellence of the area. For this very reason, the support of the Municipality of Montespertoli has been strong since the first edition and the mayor
Alessio Mugnaini
declares
: “The second edition of this initiative is a nice confirmation because, after a year with many initiatives that have seen our winemakers around the territory, we can say that this moment is the real point of reference to trace the development goals of Montespertoli wine. For two days we will have the opportunity to confront and get to know the world of winemakers; a world that in recent years is continuing to grow in terms of quality and sustainability.”
