Blog post about a wine tasting in Florence in october 2014

1. A Wine Lunch at the presentation of Le Nuove Guide dell’Espresso 2014
Who would say no to the possibility of having a free pass to the wine tasting at the yearly presentation of
Le Nuove Guide dell’Espresso at the Stazione Leopolda? Not me! The best lunch breaks of all must be to be
able to enjoy a light lunch buffet in between wandering around the different stands and tasting interesting
wines.
Yesterday thanks to my fellow sommelier friends in Fisar Firenze, I got a pass to the yearly event at the
Stazione Leopolda in Florence. Having put aside work, told my clients I would be offline for the day, I
headed towards the Stazione Leopolda at lunch time. Sometimes Florence gives you a nice feeling like living
in a small town or village, because entering, I first met friends working at Regione Toscana, then heading
towards the wine tasting section I soon met aspiring sommeliers and fellow friends and sommeliers from
Fisar in a steady rhythm.
