Umstead Unbottled Wine Masterclass

Lost Grapes of Italy

Embark on a journey across Italy. Join us for our June Unbottled tasting as we rediscover rare, indigenous grape varieties that have nearly vanished from modern winemaking. These “lost” grapes, often cultivated for centuries in tiny pockets of the country, carry unique flavors shaped by their local soils, climates, and traditions that make up this wine masterclass.

Taught by Wine Director Simon Kaufmann, this tasting transverses the country from the Alps to the Island of Sicily. Discover the diversity, history, and craftsmanship that make Italy the crown jewel of the wine world.
