To our favor, Steve had connections with the Henry Wine Group. They import a lot of wine from Italy and Castellare is one of the wines they import. Steve was able to arrange a
very special tour of Castellare.
We were greeted by the winemaker and taken on a complete tour through the cellars. This was capped by a tasting that covered all of
their wines and grappa, as well. I think most of us had a bit a buzz by the time we were finished.
As is common with most tastings, we were provided with vessels into which we could dump our excess wine. The got little use from
this group.
Of course, we capped this visit with in the shop where we loaded up of their fine wines. A case of the I Soda Di Niccolo was selected as our “house” wine.
