Beyond Barolo: The Hidden Gems of Piemonte
We are thrilled to welcome back Taylor Mortenson, WSET III, MSc. Wine, and Fine Wine Specialist, who will guide this educational tasting. Taylor will evolve your exploration into the Piemonte region of Italy and leave you with new found knowledge.
Italy’s Northwest is famous for its "Kings and Queens," but the true soul of the region lies in its rare, native grapes. Join us at Taste Restaurant and Wine Bar for an evening of discovery as we venture off the beaten path to explore the indigenous varieties that local Viticoltori have cherished for centuries.
From the savory, textured "orange" expressions of Cortese to the rare, peppery elegance of Pelaverga, this is a masterclass in Piemontese terroir. We’ve curated four distinct wines, each paired with a chef-driven small bite designed to highlight the unique character of these native vines.
The Lineup:
The Texture: Cascina San Michele ‘Eteronimo’ Cortese (Skin-contact/Orange)
The Classic: Alberto Oggero Roero Arneis (Fresh & Aromatic)
The Spice: Scarzella Grignolino d’Asti (Light-bodied & Zesty)
The Rarity: Walter Salvano Pelaverga (Herb-driven & Elegant)
