The consortia of Alto Adige DOC wines, Etna DOC wines and Pecorino Romano PDO cheese have joined forces in a three-year promotional campaign in the UK. Despite their geographical distance with Alto Adige being the northernmost winegrowing region in Italy and Etna being located in the southern Italian island of Sicily, the two DOC-regions have many similarities: The guarantee of high-quality production and their unique terroir. The presented wines from Alto Adige DOC & Etna DOC will be accompanied by a diverse selection of food around Pecorino Romano PDO.

The tasting will be led by Christine Marsiglio, a Master of Wine since 2019. She was awarded the prestigious Bollinger Medal for excellence in tasting during the Master of Wine exams. Christine also leads as the Director of Education at Wine Folly, where she contributes her extensive expertise in the field.
