The VinItaly USA tour is back, this time with events in Chicago and New York. This is always a must for any Italian wine lover, as dozens of producers from all over the country pour their newest releases at the walk around Grand Tasting; in addition, there are sit-down seminars in each city.

The Chicago tasting will take place on Monday, April 30 at the River East Art Center (435 E. Illinois Street). The Grand Tasting will run from 1-5 and is for members of the wine trade. There will also be a Grand Tasting for the public from 6-8:30. Two seminars are also scheduled for that day; the first on restaurant trends and the second on indigenous varieties.
