Episode 6: Great Italian Whites

While everyone is familiar with the profound wines of Barolo and Tuscany, it seems not nearly enough attention or credit is given to the country’s best white wines. So, for our first Italian episode, we decided to focus on the Great White Wines of Italy. Joining us today with bottles from their own cellar are; Wine Buyer and General Manager of The 10 Cases Gus Pollard, Italian Wine Merchant Francesca Cioce, and Head Sommelier of Luca Restaurant Stefano D’Andrea. Special thanks to the great team at Comptoir Cafe, in Mayfair who hosted us for the filming of the episode.
