THE REDS OF THE EUGANEAN HILLS MAKE AN ENCOUNTER IN MILAN

After the success of October 20, the historic red wines of the Euganean Hills , children of the Bordeaux grapes grown in this strip of land in the Veneto region since the first half of the 19th century, are returning to Milan for the second workshop dedicated to industry professionals. On Monday , November 25, from 3:30 pm to 8:30 pm, at The Westin Palace Hotel (Milan), in collaboration with AIS Lombardia , tasting tables will be set up where the Euganean producers will present their wines to visitors. To offer the public further insight, at 5:00 pm the journalist and sommelier Andrea Gori will illustrate the characteristics of the wines in detail during the guided tasting, while the oenologist and popularizer Sissi Baratella will reveal the unique characteristics of the wine-growing area in a live video from the territory. Participants will thus be led into a “full immersion” among the volcanic hills of the production area, vineyards and woods of the Euganean Hills Regional Park.

President Gianluca Carraro explains the reason for choosing Milan: << A positioning survey that we commissioned from a leading research company has shown that, in Italy, it is above all in Milan that knowledge of our territory is concentrated as an area of origin suited to the production of red wines made from Bordeaux grapes. In fact, we feel at home in the Lombard capital, and therefore presenting our wines there represents an extraordinary opportunity to make the excellence of the Euganean Hills even better known. It is the chance to show the uniqueness of our production made of fine wines, born in a landscape, historical and artistic context of rare beauty and rich in biodiversity .>>

The Rossi dei Colli Euganei are produced with grapes of Bordeaux origin (Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Carménère), rooted in the area for two centuries. Their cultivation embodies the harmony between human knowledge, varietal expression and the uniqueness of an extraordinary territory, recently recognized as a Unesco MAB Biosphere Reserve . The wines are distinguished by their characteristic ruby red color, offering a complex and fascinating organoleptic profile. Intense and robust , but at the same time fresh and savoury , the Rossi dei Colli Euganei embody balance and modernity: their bouquet ranges from hints of red fruits and cherry to notes of ripe fruit, spices, aromatic herbs, tobacco and toasting.

Currently, the production of Rossi dei Colli Euganei is 1.3 million bottles , but it has a significant potential for development , thanks to the 890 hectares of red grapes available. Their ability to combine structure and pleasantness makes them ideal for satisfying the needs of a wide spectrum of consumers. The Milan event will be the ideal opportunity to discover and appreciate this authentic expression of the Euganean Hills.
