Virtual Wine Tasting to Benefit First Candle

Who couldn’t use an escape to Italy right about now? While we can’t be there in person, come join First Candle and Tyler Colman (Dr. Vino), the wine director at Parlor, for a virtual wine tasting. We’ll be tasting two different wines from the leading Barolo producer, Vietti, from the spectacular Piedmont region of Italy, known for Barolo wines, truffles, and risotto.

Luca Currado Vietti will join via prerecorded video to comment on the wines. The white is the Roero Arneis, an heirloom white grape variety that Luca’s father brought back from the brink of extinction, and the red “Perbacco,” which means “wow” in the local dialect.

The wines are available for pre-purchase at Parlor. All proceeds will benefit First Candle’s bereavement support for SIDS and stillbirth and education programs on safe sleep.
