Description
Mamma mia! Here we go again... Join us for an incredible winemaker dinner.
Wine & Dine with Giuseppe Russo, the man behind the label of the iconic vineyard surrounding Etna in Sicily & known as one of Italy's (let us be honest... the world!) top wine producer.
He'll be hosting you for a fun evening where we’ll be drinking, eating (& chatting) Etna Bianco Nerina & Etna Rosso a Rina as we learn how at the age of 32 Giuseppe went from classical piano & doctor of letters (yes, it’s a thing) to a self-proclaimed “farmer” (we call him a damn fine & exceptional winemaker).
“Since my first vintage, I make micro vinification to understand better the terroir,” he says. “I make lots of different wines from the same contrada to understand it. From the lower part of the vineyard, the higher part, the younger vines, the older vines. It’s my method, to understand what makes Etna special.”
A winemaking approach more akin to Barolo or Burgundy – is new on Etna. The farming traditions are ancient, and the vines well established and well cared for. But it’s only in his generation that the full potential of those vines has been realised. His ethos is to celebrate the land, operate organically & let Mother Nature do the speaking. And she has a lot to say in Sicily!
We'll be eating a perfectly paired dinner, built by Head Chef Dane & Giuseppe himself, along with our WSET educated wine team Desiree & Nico. The dinner will be seasonally inspired and playful on the palate.
