Zorzal Wine Tasting

Juan Pablo from Zorzal Winery is coming to Craft Cellars!
Here is a tasting you do not want to miss, Juan Pablo is a super star in the wine world right. Zorzal has won countless awards and medals. Almost every wine the Michelini brothers put out recieve a 90 plus score, this is truly something not to miss.
The winery is renowned for having state-of-the-art technology in crushing, fermentation and ageing. In order to achieve natural wines of the highest quality, the winery was designed on four levels to transport grapes and wines by gravity, without the use of pumps. At the same time, the winery has an automatic system of temperature control from New Zealand, which can be operated by internet from anywhere in the world. In their search to get the best out of the Gualtallary terroir, the Michelini brothers are constantly innovating processes, and this has involved bringing in roll fermenters and egg-shaped vats, in addition to introducing staggered harvesting and micro-vinifications in casks.
