veneto wine tasting and small plates
tuesday april 29th & wednesday april 30th
6-8pm
the veneto, cradled in north-east italy, extends all the way from the austrian border and the mountainous dolomites to the adriatic sea, crowned with the city of venice.
from a wine-growing perspective, it is the most prolific region in italy. it produces iconic proseccos, elegant soaves and weighty amarones. we will taste and learn about the indigenous grapes from this region including garganega, glera & the corvina.
the food of the veneto is varied, from the mountains to the sea. but the rich culinary heritage of venice is where we will focus our attention, with its passion for fried bar snacks (cichetti) and seafood.
join us for a guided wine tasting through the veneto, with matched small plates from the gia kitchen. we will tasting 5 wines, including classic examples of prosecco, soave, valpolicella & amarone.
