From April the 9th through the end of May, Tommasi talks will stream live weekly on Instagram @Tommasiwine, a series created to stay in touch with friends, clients, wine lovers and wine writers. We’ll be talking about our wines, everyday life, current events, future scenarios, the market, territories and other topics of interest.
The Instagram Live talks will be led by Giancarlo, Piergiorgio, Pierangelo and Stefano Tommasi with the support of winemakers Emiliano Falsini and Fabio Mecca Paternoster, who are a part of Giancarlo’s winemaking team and respectively manage the Tuscan estates and in those in the Southern Italian regions of Basilicata and Puglia.
Each live will host a special guest: sommeliers, importers, journalists, restaurateurs and opinion leaders from the world of wine.
Everyone is invited to participate with questions and comments. We’d also like to know how you will celebrate the end of lock down. Share your first wine and where with the hashtag #myfirsttoast.
The strong bond we share with our business partners and our customers was the inspiration we needed to kick off these dialogues: an opportunity let them get to know us, and to share our passion for wine even in times of Coronavirus. Indeed, this emergency has meant that, even if we are far away, we all feel the need to reach out and stay closer to one another during this shared crisis.
The live series was also created to present the new vintages of our products to Tommasi’s sales team, opinion leaders and the digital community, since we haven’t been able to meet during the busy Spring calendar of trade shows and events.
Thanks to the power of social media, Tommasi talks aims to reach the widest number of professionals and wine lovers, while most of us are at home, and above all, to maintain contact with our Team of Oenologists, the members of the Tommasi family and our guests in an open dialogue.
