Nothing says ‘great time’ quite like a grand collection of corks; and say what you like about screw-caps but they just ain’t as photogenic! Taken during a marvellous stand-up buffet at the Goretti Winery [Adegga / Snooth]this was just one little pile for they treated us grandly. The visit to the Goretti’s was part of the IWinETC post conference tour. For a fuller report head on over to read Marcy Gordon’s blog post and, on the IWinETC website, a take by Melba Allen, that happens to feature a photo of Sara Goretti taken by me.

Goretti Wine Corks – the latest in the regular Sunday Snapshots series highlighting photographs with a wine related theme, whether bottles, glasses, vineyards or the back scenes of wineries.

Wine Tasting Tuscan Style

Opening with the ‘basic’ wines he was almost apologetic at their simplicity. Personally I found them a delight; no idea of price at the time (the top of the range comes in at a very reasonable €20 cellar door) but to a bottle these ‘lesser’ wines were lovely, offering a balanced richness, a true regional acidic streak in the RI.VA.LE Chianti and a touch riper, softer palate to the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
