Together with our professional sommelier you will discover the secrets of Italian sparkling wines famous all over the world. How does a Prosecco differ from a Trentodoc or a Franciacorta? What makes a sparkling wine even more precious? What kind of pairing with food can enhance its pleasure? We taste and discuss together and the sommelier tells us a little about the Italian wine culture and the different production regions. The two hours fly by and in the end we have acquired a bit of (Italian) wine culture...

Enjoy bubbles while learning

Cornelia was a delightful teacher - entertaining and also thoughtfully helping us understand so much about wine/bubbles in a short amount of time. Highly recommend this session if you want a unique experience, while tasting a few kinds of bubbles along the way.

Great value!

So happy I booked this tour because I learned a lot about sparkling wines and Prosecco. Cornelia was very passionate about teaching the different elements such as the various methods and identifying good quality. I would highly recommend this tour if you love Prosecco and sparkling wines and are tired of the standard wine tastings. Thanks Cornelia !

Incredible, book it!

This was my first event after arriving in Milan and I loved it. Cornelia set the bar high! She was knowledgeable, walked us through the processes of different types of bubbles and helped us understand how our senses inform how we feel about the wine we drink. She’s also just a lovely person. I couldn’t recommend this enough. If you like bubbles, you’re learn more about why or why not in these two hours with her, all with a beautiful view of Milan. Note: I also did this solo and there were two ot...read more
