Wonderful experience! Delicious wine and educational! - Marco, the sommelier who owns the shop, was incredibly knowledgeable about Glera grapes and his Proseccos, all coming from the Valdobbiadene valley near Venice. He told us many stories about his life, his family in Lido, and the celebrity clientele that frequents the shop (George and Amal Clooney, the Rothschilds, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, and Angelina Jolie). Not only did we leave with a thorough education on Prosecco, every wine we tasted was amazing. We even bought a rare bottle to enjoy at home.

Only good things to say - This was worth it just for the conversation with Stefano, the owner of the store. 4 glasses of wine were offered paired with a small plate of cheese, meat, and bread.

Quirky and Fun! - Tasting was held right in the wine store with customers coming in ever so often to buy wine or chat. Gave the feeling of being part of the local community! They didn't give too much info on the different Prosecco's unless you asked more about it specifically. Was fun to do once for sure.
