GRAND ITALIAN WINE & FOOD TASTING CELEBRATION
Taste 100+ fine Italian Wines & Donato's Creations
Thursday, November 1st - 6:30pm
Join us and Claudio Fenocchio this upcoming Thursday and taste some of the best cru Baroli out there including Bussia, Villero and Castellero.
~
It is no secret that we are one of Giacomo Fenocchio's biggest fans.
Claudio is not only one of the greatest Piemontese wine makers today but he is a very charismatic and welcoming soul.
Five generations of Fenocchios have been producing wine from their land in Monforte d’Alba since 1894. Claudio is a master at crafting classic Baroli that express the true essence of the Nebbiolo grape.
With prices that frankly do not come close to approximating the astronomical quality of the wines, it’s obvious that Fenocchio wines should be on all Barolo lovers radar.
And what better way to showcase Fenocchios wines than to pair them with Alba white truffles. Our menu will have the option of adding the prized "tartufi bianchi" to Donato's exquisite Piemontese cuisine.

There are few wine making regions as exciting as those of the volcanic slopes of the very active volcano, Mount Etna. The whites have the complexity and minerality of Chablis, the reds...the power and grace of Burgundy.

Perched atop a hillside in the heart of the Chianti region, Isole e Olena is where winemaker Paolo De Marchi makes some of Italy’s best known “Super Tuscan” wines. His wines are uniquely known for their freshness contrasted with intensity. In 1980, Paolo pioneered his flagship wine, Cepparello, which is made from 100% Sangiovese and has set the standard for the Sangiovese movement in Italy.

Sibling winemakers Danilo and Luca Ferraro make high-quality, organically farmed Prosecco at their small, family-fun vineyard in Treviso, Italy, between the towns of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene in a little known subzone of the Prosecco DOCG-Asolo Superiore.
