Our Cartizze was awarded Cinque Grappoli (Five Bunches) in the “Duemila Vini” guide from AIS, the Associazione Italiana Sommelier (Italian Association of Sommeliers). Published in collaboration with Bibenda, the guide covers more than 20,000 wines, each of which is sampled and described in the book.

The prestigious Five Bunches, reserved only for truly excellent wines, was awarded to just 339 wineries. The award ceremony took place on November 15th against the splendid backdrop of the Hotel Rome Cavalieri in Rome. The banquet, as always prepared by masterchef Gianfranco Vissani, was followed by a press conference and presentation of the Five Bunches certificates to the producers.

The evening closed with an opportunity to sample the award-winning wines.
