lorraineboutsidefxAll it takes is a sip or two of Bracco Wines’ Brunello di Montalcino and it becomes clear that Lorraine Bracco is not messing around. Started just three years ago with her business partner Vincent Viola, Bracco’s brand produces a short list of wines that include seven reds and a white (and very soon, a rosé), all produced from Italian grapes Bracco selects herself. We got a chance to try out all of the Bracco wine offerings at a tasting event held in Midtown’s Divine Bar West last night, and we came away with an even greater admiration for Lorraine…and her palate. During the evening, we recorded a short interview with Lorraine about her first foray into the wine business, her taste in wine (and Dr. Melfi’s), as well as her very watchable on-screen chemistry with Martha Stewart.
