The reknown wine tour did not disappoint the attendees at the Tribeca Rooftop.
The Tour debuted on March 24th in Verona, Italy, landed in Chicago April 30th.
It showcases one hundred of Italy's finest wines, with winemakers on hand. The prestigious international initiative originates from the collaboration between Wine Spectator, the world's leading authority on wine and Vinitaly, the largest wine and spirits fair in the world.
