Tuesday, September 20, 2011
8:00pm
USD110 per person
Please join us for an amazing journey through Italy with three winemakers whose wines follow the traditions of family experiences passed down from generation to generation.
We begin with Roberto Pighin who, for over 40 years, has been crafting exemplary estate Pinot Grigio from the cooler climate of the Collio Region near the base of the Italian Alps.Heading south to Central Italy and dating back seven generations of winemaking, Giovanni Folinari captures the essence of Tuscany and produces exceptional Chianti Classico and Super Tuscans. Reaching the final destination near the top of the Mediterranean is Piedmont where Alberto Chiarlo, an eighth generation winemaker, prides himself on the production of old-world classics like his award-winning single vineyard Barolo «Cerequio».
Your evening will start in The Courtyard with canapés followed by a 5-course wine paired dinner in The Restaurant for USD 110 per person. For more information, please contact Dining Reservations at 305 520 6400 or setaidining@ghmamericas.com, or visit www.setai.com/dining/specialevents
