Ep. 1914 Giampaolo Tabarrini | Wine, Food & Travel With Marc Millon

Welcome to episode 1914 of the Italian Wine Podcast, Wine, Food & Travel With Marc Millon. Today, he is interviewing Giampaolo Tabarrini. Today, the conversation is rich with tales of Montefalco - from Trebbiano Spoletino and Sagrantino to the luscious Montefalco Passito, all paired harmoniously with local dishes of the region. More about today’s winery:  Tabarrini is one of the best-known and most respected artisan wine producers in Montefalco with its vineyards and wine cellar located in and around Turrita. Giampaolo – who represents the fourth generation of the farmers of the Tabarrini family – is a passionate and eccentric winemaker and master and architect of this uncompromising and developing project. A great visionary who remains true to himself while striving for change, Giampaolo has, since taking over his parents’ farm in the late ‘90s, transformed it into the extraordinary success story it is today. The company that bears his name reflects his character – constantly moving in search of perfection and fresh challenges, with a dynamism that’s focused on the future but with the confidence of being founded on strong roots – on their own land, while upholding the Tabarrini family values passed through the generations, as well as the local traditions.
