There are pronounced aromas of peaches and sliced apples. In the mouth, this wine is balanced with a light acidity and layers of fruit. A bright and refreshing trebbiano bursting with apples, peaches and citrus notes.
Course 3: ARROSTITO DI MANZO ALLA TOSCANA
Braised Angus beef in a Chianti red wine sauce, gnocchis Romana, charred tomatoes
Ciacci Piccolomini | Ateo
Bold | 50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon | Aragona, Italy
An Intense ruby red color in the glass. A full and enveloping bouquet of red fruit, cedar, and vibrant herbal tones give way to an even more complex array of tasting characteristics. On the palette, plush dark fruits, and a hint of vanilla present themselves. This wine is medium-to-full bodied with elegant and approachable tannins. There is a hint of “wild Tuscany'' in the wine that adds to its personality. All this wrapped up in a smooth and persistent finish.
Course 4: TRADITIONAL PANACOTTA
Vanilla panacotta, fresh berries and fried Italian beignet
Tintero
Nectar | Moscato | Asti, Italy
The third generation Tintero family continues their family’s traditions of winemaking. Aromas of spring wildflowers and fragrant citrus blossoms led way to flavors of green apple skin,and under ripe green pear. This wine is semi-sweet which is complimented by the crisp acidity and bright spritz which tickle the tongue and cheeks.
