into wine tasting as we tasted Fratelli’s best offerings – Sauvignon Blanc, Sangiovese Rose, Cabernet
Sauvignon, etc. by trying to associate the smell with nature and fruits, swirling the glass, observing the
legs of the wine slide to determine the alcohol level, sniffing it again and finally sipping it and swirling it
