Bubbles before Christmas

December is a month of bubbles so let me bring out the best bottles and pop the corks during this Wine Dinner at Olivity Amsterdam. How about the most unexpected sparkling wines from countries like Slovenia, Turkey, Austria and really surprising wines from the classical wine countries like Italy and France? 

6 sparkling wines from different grapes, different countries and made using different techniques paired with a festive Greek Christmas dinner on a Saturday night.

During the tasting we will discuss the specifics about each wine country and region, winemakers and the special and rare grape varieties these wines are made from. All the participants will receive a wine tasting journal that they can keep for themselves and use for filling notes for more than 100 wines.

And as it's the time of gifts and surprizes every ticket includes a special gift - a surprize bottle for each participant!

Here's the wine list:

1. Piripicchio Brut Nature Spumante Metodo Ancestrale Rosato - an Italian pet-nat from a new joint project of the most famous winemakers of Tuscany and Etna. The wine is made from Nerello Mascalese, it's “blanc de noir” from Etna volcano, Sicily.
