International Wine Tourism Conference 2012 --PREVIEW



I'm back! It was cold, wet and snowy!  But the weather did not dampen the enthusiasm or the flavor of the fabulous wines in Italy. I have so much to tell about my whirlwind tour of Italy's wine regions and the 2012 International Wine Tourism Conference held in Perugia in Umbria. I also took a side trip to Puglia after the conference and sampled some of the wines there too. But for now, here is a sneak peak-- just the tip of the ice(wine)berg of posts to come in the following weeks:

Kick-off Dinner in Orvieto

Pasta Making at Arnaldo - Caprai Winery

The International Wine Tourism Conference

Regal Dinner at Castelo dell' Oscano 

Grand Tasting of Italian Wines led by Jane Hunt

The Awesome Wines of Puglia

The Amazing Wines of Croatia

A Night Out at Terre Margaritelli

The Real Houeswives Wine Bloggers of Umbria

The Food and Wine of Campania at Terre del Principe

The Sublime Wine and Food Parings at Villa Matilde

Under the Volcano at Grotta del Sole
There's much much more to come about all the people, places, stellar birthday celebrations, and of course the wines....so stay tuned or better yet sign up for posts to be sent via email.

Ciao ciao--

    1. I hope my thoughts can meet your expectations. If they are half as as expansive as my waistline became I have a good chance...;-)

    1. Thanks for stopping by my blog Elizabeth. I love your iPhone app EAT ROME. Did not get to use it as much as I would have liked due to the weather. But I plan to mention it in a future post.
