Course on Italian wines and food and wine pairing

“From the Vineyard to the Glass” – Enography, wine tasting technique and food and wine pairing

Among the rolling hills of the Langhe and Monferrato area, immersed in the pleasant and evocative atmosphere of the Castle of Costigliole d’Asti, inside its historic Wine Cellar, where ICIF has set up a very modern tasting room with a futuristic design, with 20 single multi-functional stations for wine tasting and food and wine pairing, surrounded by a range of hundreds of prestigious wine bottle labels from different regions of Italy, you will be accompanied by a professional Sommelier instructor to discover the world of Italian wines, a world envied by many foreigners and not yet well appreciated by Italians for its potential and organoleptic facets. The program of the ICIF Course on Italian Wines and Food and Wine Pairing provides skills, as well as relating to the specific world of Italian wines through a national overview of the different regions, also related to the restaurant world, in relation to food preparations and suggestions for correct pairings, including guided tests with all the different courses of an Italian Menu, from appetizers to desserts, also including the pairing with cheeses. The program of the course includes two field trips to local wineries with wine tasting, organized by the Institute at a local winery.

The course is in Italian language and teachers are supported by an interpreter in English language.
