Buon Giorno,
Last Saturday we experienced a delightful turnout for our Taste & Learn event featuring Castello Banfi wines. During the night we were pleased to see so many new faces eager to sample and learn about the renowned winery, and we hope to see the trend continue. The next planned event is on August 20th from 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM. The cost is $65 per person and is all inclusive of tax and gratuity. Reservations are required.
During the upcoming event, we are excited to feature the wines of Santa Margherita from Alto Adige and Toscana. Gaetano Marzotto founded Santa Margherita in 1931, and as you may know, Santa Margherita made the varietal Pinot Grigio possibly the most famous white wine in the world. At this event, we are honored to have his grandson Vittorio Marzotto as our speaker.
Below is a list of the featured pairings for the evening.
