Amalfi Coast Wine Tasting Prospects With Local Wine Expert

June 10, 2013 - PRLog -- Swirl the Glass is offering tourists the opportunity for Amalfi Coast wine tasting and touring this summer with Cristian Fusco, a professional sommelier.

Italy is undoubtedly a great tourist destination, regardless of when you visit as it is filled with history, culture and gorgeous highlights that would fulfill any fantasy. Accommodating as many as 46.1 million tourists yearly, Italy currently stands as the fifth most travelled country in the world. And while there are many criterions to base its tourism value on – art, fashion, stunning coastlines, breathtaking countrysides and priceless ancient monuments – cuisine will always be among top must-try experiences   in the nation – with Italian wine as a vital part of the menu.

For those who are unaware, Italy hosts some of the best wine-producing regions in the world, as well as the oldest and most popular. And in fact, it shares the title of largest wine producer with France, contributing as much as 1/3 of the global supply. These exports are also among the most consumed – both in red and white varieties. So it shouldn't be much of a question whether or not you'd go for a wine tasting adventure when in this nation. All you have to figure out is where.

Swirl the Glass suggests Amalfi Coast wine tasting since it is provides people access to the wonderful southern coast of the Sorrentine Peninsula and is a UNESCO accredited cultural landscape. Not only that, it also presents rugged terraines and refreshing shores that pair up well with the full-bodied flavors of Sagrantino and Corvina as well as the complex and crisp taste of Pinot grigio and Pecorino, to name a few. Besides, who wouldn't find it enjoyable to swirl, look, smell and sip a variety of wine selections from two family-run restaurants in the village of Positano while exploring the Sirenuse Islands and relaxing in luxury villas overlooking the Gulf of Salerno.

It doesn't matter whether you're on a date with your special someone or making memories with your best friends. This prospect is hard to miss when in Italy. And with a host as well-rounded as Cristian Fusco, people will certainly enjoy and learn a lot from the encounter, from how to properly pick wine to how to sample them fully.
