A day in San Gimignano with Filippo Bartolotta, Gianfranco Vissani and Mario Cipollini

I originally wanted to talk about Orienteering, Gourmet Team building activity outdoors, perfect for creating team spirit. Instead, we will reminisce about a day we found ourselves in San Gimignano on La7 that ran an episode of "I’ll Bring You There (Ti Ci Porto Io)" the following week. Filippo was the star as a wine expert and the episode was filmed between the towers in San Gimignano of the “Manhattan of Tuscany.” The region is best known for Vernaccia di San Gimignano wine, saffron, gold and masterpieces of art just like the masterpieces of the senses!

Along with Fillippo, Gianfranco Vissani and Michela Rocco di Torrepadula were assisted by an exceptional host, Mario Cipollini, world champion of high level cycling of Italy worldwide!

The piece was filmed starting with masterpieces of Pinacoteca di San Gimignano and continued to Piazza della Cisterna at the top of the rocky hillsides, where with jokes and lots of laughter, we enjoyed a glass of Vernaccia di San Gimignano Riserva!

The view from hills was breathtaking, all with wonderful light snow!

It's really incredible to have the opportunity to see all San Gimignano and countryside around with so much snow.

The episode was aired March 11 2012, the theme was of course Tuscany!

Le Baccanti attends Vinitaly!

Vinitaly is an annual wine expo and convention for producers, journalists and operators in the magical world of wine.

 

Vinitaly is the most important Italian exhibition dedicated to Italian wine. Those in the wine world absolutely cannot miss the annual Vinitaly event.

During the event, Filippo Bartolotta our resident wine journalist for the L'Espresso Wine Guide and Gourmet Journal “Gazzetta Gastronomica” provides us real-time updates and insider info for the event.

How is Vinitaly useful for Le Baccanti corporate events and Team Building with wine?

In order to organize corporate events where we offer Team Building courses with wine, it is necessary that our activities respect very high wine market standards while exceeding our client’s expectations of any level of wine knowledge.

This objective for our wine teambuilding events is achieved by:

-the use of professional wine experts and engaging speakers

-the search for high-quality wines and doing our homework at events like Vinitaly

-Thorough research of trends and quality wines in order to arrange new corporate events and Team Building activities with wine for our other Team Building activities

Our Team Building activities with wine will be precisely where, alongside renowned wines, your corporate group can participate in game-tasting while learning about Italian terroir, wine makers and great wines from all over Italy!
