From the department of “festina lente”….

The 2024 vintage is shaping up to be a good one over here at Do Bianchi Editorial… poo poo poo!

Here are some upcoming events where we can taste together and trade notes.

February 5: online “What’s Happening with Italian Wines” tasting with Hue Society (wines available exclusively to Hue Society members but Zoom call open to all; stay tuned for link).

February 26: Taste of Italy Houston, the city’s 10th annual Italian food and wine trade fair. I’ll be leading a number of tastings including the “Texas BBQ and Italian Wine” seminar (sells out every year; reserve now to secure your spot).

February 29: I’ll be pouring Amistà at the James Suckling tasting in Miami.

March 13-14: Tracie and I will be hosting a reception for Tahiirah Habibi at our house in Houston (March 13) and then a Hue Society Happy Hour, also in Houston where she is recruiting new members for Hue Society (March 14, venue TBD). Stay tuned for details.

March 18 (week): I’ll be leading Abruzzo seminars at three stops along the Slow Wine Tour in New York, Austin, and Denver. If you attend in Austin, hit me up for info about our annual Slow Wine honky tonk crawl (no joke, just ask Giancarlo!).

April 14-17: I’ll be doing a ton of stuff at Vinitaly this year and will be attending all four days. Hit me up if you want to taste with Amistà or Abruzzo or if you just want to connect. Hopefully I’ll be doing a Hue Society event as well.

Looking forward to connecting with you in 2024! Thanks for the support!
