🍷🇮🇹 SATURDAY W**E TASTING AT RIZZO ITALIAN DELI!

Today we're heading to Veneto, Northern Italy, to discover the w**es of Borgo Molino, a family w**ery with a history dating back to 1922.

Located near Treviso, not far from the famous Prosecco hills, Borgo Molino is run by the Nardin family, who have been making w**e for generations.

What I particularly like about this w**ery is how they produce w**es that are approachable, full of character and a lovely expression of the region.

Today we'll be opening four of their w**es:

🥂 Pinot Grigio – Fresh, crisp and delicate.

🥂 Sauvignon Blanc – Aromatic, lively and refreshing.

🍷 Pinot Nero – Elegant, soft and fruity.

🍷 Cabernet Sauvignon – Richer, with lovely dark fruit flavours.

Four different w**es, four different personalities, and a nice opportunity to explore the differences between grape varieties.

As always, our Saturday tastings are completely free, informal and open to everyone. Whether you know a little or a lot about w**e, there's always something new to discover.

🍷 We also have 10% off when choosing a mixed case of four bottles from today's selection.

14/09/2026

There's something interesting about businesses that build an audience before they build the business around it, and Rizzo Italian Deli - Worcester is a particularly good example.

Gianluca Austin-Rizzo didn't start with his own deli or w**e shop. He began by hosting w**e tastings and dinners from a space inside a local Italian restaurant, sharing his knowledge and passion for Italian w**e in a way that was deliberately relaxed and approachable.

It clearly found an audience. Over the following three years, the events regularly sold out and Rizzo W**e Club grew into a community of more than 700 members, giving Gianluca the confidence to take what he'd created to the next stage.

Earlier this year, that resulted in the opening of Rizzo Deli & W**e Shop on King Street, giving the business a permanent home where people can discover Italian w**es, charcuterie, cheeses, fresh pasta and artisan products, alongside produce from local suppliers.

I think there's a useful lesson in the way the business has developed, because we often assume growth starts with finding premises, investing in them and then working out how to attract enough customers through the door.

Rizzo's journey has been almost the reverse. Gianluca started with an idea, built a following around it, learnt what people responded to and then created a physical business for a community that already existed.

The shop may be relatively new to Worcester, but in many ways the business behind it had been growing for several years before the doors ever opened.

Sometimes your first customers don't arrive after you launch. They're the reason you're able to launch in the first place.
