25+ Franciacorta Producers will be presenting their wines at a Walk-Around Tasting on Wednesday, June 5th, 2019 at The Redbury Hotel’s spacious event space on the second floor.

The tasting will feature wineries that are already present in the New York market, in addition to a few that are seeking importation.
