Italian Wines were the big draw last week at Taste of Italy’s Tre Bicchieri Wine Tasting.

The enthusiastic and good looking crowd savoured the 100+ wines with the coveted Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso, Italy’s most influential wine guide.  The night was presented by  Gambero Rosso and Liberty Group in support of the Humber River Hospital Foundation.

Big thanks to the Consulate General of Italy in Toronto and the Italian Trade Agency for their support.
