Ciao, friends!
It’s time to tell you about February’s Taste & Learn event, one which will bring us vintages from one of Italy’s most prestigious and longest-running wineries: Antinori. Run by family for 26 generations, this Tuscan institution has operated since the 14th century! On February 22, we will gather together to taste their renowned Vermentino di Bolgheri, Chianti, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and an exquisite Brunello. All, as you know, will be accompanied by very special dishes masterfully created by our talented Chef Francesco DiCaudo
The menu for the evening will be:
Antinori Guado al Tasso Vermentino di Bolgheri, 2018
Carciofi in casseruola
Pan-roasted artichokes, orange, Orbetello Bottarga
Antinori Peppoli Chianti Classico, 2016

As a reminder, if you’ve not attended Taste & Learn before or if you’re a regular who never misses a month, here are a few tips to ensure you enjoy the best experience possible:
- Taste & Learn is an educational presentation as well as an excellent food and wine experience. We want everyone to enjoy everything about the evening, so please be courteous and attentive while our presenters are speaking.
- Both the wine merchant and our Chef will say a few words at each course. Please refrain from tasting the wine or the dish until they have each spoken.
- Due to the ongoing popularity of our events, we have implemented assigned seating to ensure all parties attending together may sit together.
Of course, we look forward to having you join us so don’t disappoint me! Tickets are still just an incredible $75 (all-inclusive), so these events fill quickly! Make your reservations today.
Salute!
Gino
