Raise Your Glass (or Three)


 


 

In the works for months has been our Tre Bicchieri Wine Dinner. Originally set for March 5th, we have postponed the date to April 23rd - but it will be well worth the wait! Chiara Geronimo, from Italia Wine Imports, has worked with our Food & Wine Committee to put together an amazing "tour" of Italian wines. And not just any wines…most of them are winners of the prestigious Tre Bicchieri (translated as three glasses) awards, hosted here in the Bay Area by Gambero Rosso, the experts on all things Italian. After tasting through 14,000 wines (hopefully not all by the same person!) they came up with hundreds of winners – and the wines hand-selected for our dinner show just how variegated the wines of Italy can be.

Not only will you be wowed by the wines, but we are also extremely excited to feature the collaboration in the kitchen – our own Chef Michael Munoz is pairing with Chef Richard Corbo, the rising star who heads the kitchen at Ducca. This powerhouse of talents is sure to produce several courses that will delight your palate! Limited space is available for this event, so don't wait until the last minute – make your reservations now! For members and their hosted guests, this dinner comes in at a very reasonable $95 inclusive. But if you would like to come and try out the Club as a non-member, you are welcome to sign up; the cost for all these wines, and a full dinner still a very digestible $125 inclusive.

This will be a dinner not to be missed!
