Historic Nebbiolo wine tasting at Villa Era

During the third edition of Assaggio a Nord Ovest, a three-day event dedicated to the discovery of the rich wine-making tradition of Northern Piedmont, Villa Era played host to a historic wine tasting class presided over by Kerin O’Keefe, the Italian editor of Wine Enthusiast Magazine.

An international group of critics and journalists had the chance to sample wines from the Rivetti, Sella, Montevacallo and Centovigne cellars, some of which dated back to the 19th century.
