Wineries showcased in the Tre Bicchieri tour are those awarded the highly coveted tre bicchieri (three glass) designation in the newly-released 2024 Vini D’Italia. Considered to be the ultimate authority of the best Italian wines, the 2024 Vini D’Italia guide features a curated list of thousands of producers selected by more than 60 tasters who traveled throughout the country tasting some 25,000 wines collectively. Wines are evaluated using Gambero Rosso’s bicchieri rating–or glass ranking–with the tre bicchieri rating reserved for only the top wines from that vintage. Of the 25,231 wines reviewed in the latest Vini d’Italia Guide, just 498 wines were awarded the coveted tre bicchieri designation.
The 2024 guide is available for pre-order on amazon.com and will be available for cash sale during Gambero Rosso’s 2024 invitation-only U.S. tour.
