Simpatico Native Grape Lunch Program Session 4 (12 Noon Session)

About the Event

Love Italian wine? Join us for this immersion into the world of Italian wine as we explore Italian Native Grapes together. over a special wine & food pairing lunch prepared by Chef Dawn. Our wine partner for this session is Doria Wines. Doria only imports wines from very small production "microwineries" and the wines you will be tasting have very limited production and availability in the USA. This will be an interactive educational and fun seated experience in our Trattoria Simpatico and will continue monthly! You can sign up for this session or the series.
