– LONDON – The day before the opening of the Grand Crus in Bordeaux, one of the main events in world oenology, at the Italian Cultural Institute in London, Italian wine ‘relaunches’ with the 2014 vintage of three of the most famous and appreciated wine areas of Tuscany. Thanks to a system project promoted by the Institute with the ICW agency and the Italian Embassy in the United Kingdom, the sommeliers Federico Moccia and Nelson Pari have allowed a qualified audience of British buyers and wine experts to taste extraordinary bottles of Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and Bolgheri of 2014.
A vintage initially considered “difficult” by industry experts, but whose wines in ten years in the bottle have given rise to very high quality results, as demonstrated by the tasting held in the Belgrave Square headquarters of the Cultural Institute with a view to of ever-increasing promotion of Italian wine in the United Kingdom: an excellent business which, according to Ice, brought in around one billion euros in 2023.
The ‘2014 Tuscany – 10 years later’ event was opened by, together with the director of the Institute, Francesco Bongarrà, the deputy ambassador of Italy in London, Riccardo Smimmo, the consul general Domenico Bellantone, the director of the Ice Agency in British capital, Giovanni Sacchi, and the agricultural attaché of the Embassy, Gabriella Manfredi. “The Italian System believes in these important promotional actions: our culture, our Italian way of life also pass through the excellence of our wine”, underlined Smimmo.
