With an emphasis on easy-drinking & more approachable wines, this tasting will be enjoyed by the ‘mid-level wine aficionado/ casual level’ wine drinker.

Reserve Tasting
for the more advanced wine drinker
Geared towards the more advanced wine drinker / wine collector, this Tasting Experience features wines from our Palazzo Reserve Series Wines, plus (1) additional Hand-Selected Wine daily.
