Miami, Florida, February 9, 2012 – – Casa Vinicola Zonin will take part in the “Tre Bicchieri USA Tour 2012”. This coast-to-coast event, presented by Gambero Rosso (the most famous Italian Food & Wine portal and accredited guide), will take place on February 15, 17 and 21, 2012.

During this special event, Casa Vinicola Zonin will showcase the following Tre Bicchieri award-winning wines from Tuscany estates Castello d’Albola and Rocca di Montemassi:

In addition, these other award-winning wines will also be poured: Castello d’Albola Chianti Classico DOCG, Rocca di Montemassi Calasole Vermentino and Rocca di Montemassi Sassabruna Supertuscan.

Specifically, Casa Vinicola Zonin will participate at all three events in the following locations:

  • San Francisco: Wednesday, February 15

3:00 – 6:00 pm: Fort Mason Center (Herbst Pavillion) – 38 Fort Mason, San Francisco, CA 94123

  • New York: Friday, February 17

3:00 – 7:00 pm: Metropolitan Pavillion – 125 West 18th Street, New York, NY 10011

  • Chicago: Tuesday, February 21

3:00 – 6:00 pm: Union Station – 210 South Canal Street, Chicago, IL 60606

The “Tre Bicchieri USA Tour 2012” will start after presenting its premium group of award winners to the world. This year – from over 20,000 wines tasted by Gambero Rosso panels – only 375 labels attained that status. Therefore, only producers of a label that achieved Vini d’Italia’s highest category (i.e. Tre Bicchieri), will take part in it.

“It’s a real honor for casa Vinicola Zonin to be considered as an emblem of Italian excellence: this means that our hard work paid off” said Francesco Zonin, President of Zonin USA. He then added: “Our corporate philosophy is based on three core values: our indissoluble bond to the land and grapes, commitment to quality and attention to the consumer”.

Casa Vinicola Zonin, Italy’s largest privately held wine company, is one of the most popular imported brands in the United States. The company owns 11 wine estates and is present in 109 countries all over the world.
