Novello wine to be sampled from November 6th

This Rome blog article was written for the guests of the Bed and Breakfast Chaplin Rome.

Italy’s wine makers will be opening the doors of their cellars on Sunday for a sampling of their new “novello” labels, an annual event which grew out of the Beaujolais Nouveau tradition dating back to the 1930’s.

These fruity young wines appear on the shelves from November 6th and are best drunk within a few months of production.

The Lazio region has an excellent and growing selection of these wines so, also considering the continuing good weather, the November month is a perfect one to take a trip out of Rome to visit some of the cellars – details at http://www.mtvlazio.com.
