The Tre Bicchieri World Tour starts its coast to coast swing in the United States after presenting its premium group of award winners to the world. Only producers of a label that achieved Vini d’Italia’s highest category, Tre Bicchieri, took part in this tour. After the success of the tastings in Hong Kong and Shanghai, three events are scheduled in the United States: San Francisco (February 15), New York (February 17) and Chicago (February 21). Only Tre Bicchieri wines will be on the tasting tables. This year, from over 20,000 wines tasted by Gambero Rosso panels, only 375 labels attained that status. The opportunity to taste these top bottles have made the three tasting events key February classics. A newly-designed Italian Wines 2012, the English-language version of Vini d’Italia, will make its first appearance in its trimmer format.
