Take Flight Tasting: North Italy in Two Perspectives with Rossello and Kornell Wines
When: Thursday, October 8th
Time: 6-8Pm
Cost: $35 for all friends
Tasting Type: Classroom
For this special tasting, we’re bringing together two Italian producers with deep roots in Northern Italy: Rossello from Piedmont and Kornell from Alto Adige/Südtirol.
Rossello has been making wine in Cortemilia, in the Alta Langa of Piedmont, since 1920. Now in its fourth generation, the family winery is deeply connected to the Langhe and its wine traditions, producing everything from Gavi and Roero Arneis to Barbera, Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. Their wines give us a taste of Piedmont’s distinctive landscape and centuries-old wine culture.
Kornell, meanwhile, brings us into the heart of Alto Adige/Südtirol, where winegrowing has been part of the culture for roughly 2,500 years. The estate has more than 700 years of documented wine history, with vineyards shaped by mountain elevations, porphyry soils, abundant sunshine, and cool Alpine nights.
Together, Rossello and Kornell give us two different perspectives on Northern Italian wine—from the rolling hills of Piedmont to the dramatic mountain vineyards of Alto Adige.
And having representatives from both wineries with us makes this tasting particularly exciting. You’ll hear directly from the people behind the wines—their families, vineyards, winemaking philosophies, challenges, traditions, and the choices that make each bottle unique.
🍇 This is a classroom-style tasting featuring a curated selection of wines designed to showcase the range of the region and the different expressions that northern Italy can offer.
We’ll taste, learn, compare, ask questions, and—most importantly—hear the stories straight from the winemakers themselves. Because wine tastes a little different when you know the people, places, and traditions behind the bottle.
