New Wine Festival, Montecarlo Lucca
New Wine Festival, Montecarlo Lucca
Every year in the second weekend of November Montecarlo in Lucca, Tuscany celebrates the God Bacchus by hosting the New Wine Festival. Montecarlo, Lucca is famous for both dry white and robust red wines. The white wines especially the Bianco of Montecarlo are as exquisite as the surrounding hills which are famous for growing some of the best Trebbiano grapes in the world.
This year the festival will be celebrated in late November with lovely food, excellent wines and fun and frolic. As is the norm every year the festival will have many, many wine tastings especially of the new wines including those of 2007. There will be food stalls as well offering delicious Tuscan foods including specialties from Lucca. You can get the opportunity to pair delicious Italian food with the most appropriate wine.
All the festivities at the New Wine Festival include wine tastings; food stalls, demonstrations etc will have the common theme of wine running through them. The aim of the festival is to introduce new wines to one and all in a festive and enjoyable atmosphere.
We look forward not only to welcoming all International visitors but we also welcome all wine lovers locals and tourists alike, whether they are amateurs or professionals to celebrate with us. Let us raise a toast together to our ancient God of Wine, Bacchus who has brought so much pleasure to our lives!
