This year we had the opportunity to taste the white wines 2012 and the red wines from 2011.
The white wines came out as the better harvest than the red ones from 2011.
The red wines lacked mostly body and content but there ware some very good wines.
Overall interesting and hopefully they reduce their prices enough.

Selezione del Sindaco
La Selezione del Sindaco, Castelfranco Veneto, 30/05 – 02/06/2013
Like every
year around this time, end of May, and this year for the 13th time, started the
international competition of La Selezione del Sindaco with journalists from all
over the world and also with people working in wine to be judging the wines in
competition.
This year
the competition took place in the region of Veneto ,
more explicit in Castelfranco Veneto
near the hart of the Prosecco region.
4 Days of
blind tasting in the historical location of Villa Emo.
We had to
taste a variety of Spumante or Metodo Classico wines, white still wines, red wines
and sweet or passito wines.
It was nice
to see the friends again on this yearly event. Of course we see most of them
several times in the year, but it is all about sharing our experiences.
The organisation
was as usual impeccable.
For lunch
we had a variety of food made by the hotel school of DIEFFE ,
Diner we
took at different wine houses, and the usual banquet the final evening was the for
graduation of the hotel school which was superb.
