"Tasting Abruzzo":
multi-part master class and tasting through Italy's most unique and rugged wine region
Guided tasting and selections by our Sous Chef/Sommelier/Beverage Director Chris O’Brien
SATURDAY, JANUARY 25th, 1-2:30pm
"Abruzzo 103: It’s not Rose', it’s Cerasuolo! A guided tasting through the most unique wine in the region,
Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo"
The focus is on Cerasuolo, Abruzzo’s peculiar, dark-hued (but not red) wine. What it is, where and how it’s made, and all its iterations. From stoop pounders to age-worthy vintage Cerasuolo, we’ll taste IGT and DOC examples as well as a DOC Superiore. Stuzzichini will feature Abruzzese cheeses & house-cured salumi by Chef Andrew.
Wine + stuzzichini: $120/person (excl tax & gratuity)
Reservations via Resy or calling 215.271.5626
It’s important to us not only that you enjoy drinking the wines we carry, but also that you learn things about the culture, place, and people helping us and you to find the happy place, explore internal and external dimensions, escape from reality, etc. However you roll.
We hope you'll join us!
