The rugby weekend of the year is just under two months away - and winemaker Federico Cerelli has been busy creating a day to remember exclusively for WineSpark members and their friends.

We’re looking at an afternoon of amazing food and wine, hosted by one of Italy’s best winemakers, at a stunning 15th century Roman villa.

You’ll enjoy a masterclass of Federico’s full range of I Filari wines, paired with each food course, and hear directly from the man himself what makes them taste so special.

Here’s exactly what you need to know:

• When: Friday 14th March
• Where: Casale della Falcognana, Rome
• What time: 1-5pm
• How much: €220 per person (or €200 when you buy at least six tickets)
• What’s included: A five-course lunch, six different wines, digestifs and coffees, and a bus back to central Rome 

I expect demand to be high for this one, so book your place today with a €20 deposit.

We’ll then ask you to transfer the balance (€200) directly to Federico’s company at the start of March.
