SUMMARY:Slow Wine Tasting: An Early Evening with Il Borro
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for an early evening of slow wine appreciation\, led by Slow Food’s University of Gastronomic Sciences graduate and Il Borro APAC brand manager Dario Mulino. Dario will walk us through a selection of organic and biodynamic Il Borro wines\, produced at their gorgeous Tuscan vineyard. \nAbout Il Borro:  \n \nIl Borro is many things: an organic vineyard; a Relais & Chateaux luxury resort; a zero-emissions project; a restored medieval village — and so much more. \nIl Borro was bought by fashion house icon Ferruccio Ferragamo in 1993\, and is currently being managed by his sons\, Salvatore and Vittorio. It is located one hour southeast of Florence. The scenic estate shares close connections with Italy’s old noble families\, including the Medicis (who once went hunting there); and the House of Savoy. \nThe originally preserved wine cellar at Il Borro is possibly one of Tuscany’s oldest. Grape varieties like Sangiovese\, Merlot\, Cabernet and Petit Verdot can be found at Il Borro. \nIl Borro produced its first wine in 2003\, and converted to organic farming in 2007. \nAbout Dario Mulino:  \n \nWine advocate Dario Mulino has been passionately involved in the wine trade since early 2006\, when he lived in the Langhe region in Italy and started travelling to many fine wine regions in and out of Italy and Europe. \nHe graduated from Slow Food’s University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo\, Italy in 2009\, with a final thesis on the international wine markets. For years\, he worked and eventually managed the tastings at the Wine Bank in Pollenzo\, Piedmont\, home to one of the world’s largest collections of Italian fine wine. \nDario has been based in Hong Kong for over 10 years\, and loves to travel around Asian countries and to explore the F&B scene. \nDetails \nDate: 15 October 2021 (Fri) \nTime:  5:30pm to 7:30pm \nAddress: Watson’s Wine Tasting Room\, 7/F\, 135 Bonham Strand Trade Centre\,135 Bonham Strand\, Sheung Wan \nCost: \n\nHKD 150 per person for non-members\, includes 1 year membership to Slow Food Hong Kong\nHKD 100 per person for Slow Food Hong Kong members\n\nFully booked! \nRegister Here \n*Participants will need to have received 2 doses of COVID-19 vaccines at least 14 days before the event\, and be able to show the vaccination record as proof.
