Join us at caffe bottega italiana on wednesday November 19th for an exclusive italian wine education event
We’ll welcome Alessia Sciotti, Family Brand Ambassador visiting from the Fantini Group in Italy, along with Massimo Silvia, certified Sommelier with more than 20 years of experience with Italian wine.
Alessia and Massimo will lead us in a tasting of Fantini wines from Sardinia and Campania. Sardinian wines capture the island’s wild beauty, sun-soaked, sea-kissed, and shaped by steady Mediterranean winds. They balance bold flavor with freshness, offering whites that are crisp and mineral-driven, and reds that are rich yet refined, reflecting the island’s rugged elegance.
Our tastings will include wines like the Saragat Cannonau Di Sardegna, Saragat Vermentino Isola Dei Nuraghi, Saragat Monica Isola Dei Nuraghi, Lava Aglianico Beneventano, and Lava Falanghina Beneventano.
Caffe Bottega Italiana will serve hors d’oeuvres from our selection of specialty imported meats and cheeses, marinated vegetables and fresh bread.
Space is limited, so sign up today to reserve your seat for this rare treat!
Be there on Wednesday November 19th from 6:00pm – 8:00pm to learn deeply from our Italian wine experts.
Tickets are $55 each, and include all wine tastings and hors d’oeuvres. All wines will be available for purchase at the event. All attendees must be 21 and over.
