IWFS Victoria - Barolo Tasting and Dinner

Dear Members of IWFS Victoria,

We are holding a very special wine dinner showcasing top Barolos on Tuesday October 3.  I am very excited indeed about these wines and am really looking forward to sharing them with you.  Places are limited to 12 attendees.

We will focus on the classic vintage of 2004.  This vintage is a 7/7 vintage and is finally approaching readiness to drink, though many of these exceptional Barolos have another 20 years in them.

Wines have been drawn from the great makers of Barolo, choosing their top wines, and will include:

• Sandrone Le Vigne
• E. Pira & Figli (Chiara Boschis) Cannubi
• Vietti Rocche
• Vietti Lazzarito
• Elio Altare Brunate
• Domenico Clerico Ciabet Mentin Ginestra
• Vietti Riserva Villeroo
• Giacomo Conterno Monfortino
• Bruno Giacosa Riserva Le Rocche del Faletto en magnum

We will start with a magnum of Champagne to prepare our palates for the reds to follow.

The dinner will be held in the private room upstairs at Scopri, surely one of the greatest Italian restaurants in Melbourne.  With the help of our member Michael Lambourne, Scopri has designed a sensational five-course menu plus canapés, specifically to suit our glorious Barolos.  This is going to be great fun!

Where: Scopri, 191 Nicholson St, Carlton

When: Tuesday October 3, 7pm for 7.30pm

Cost: $530 for members, $580 for guests
