From Abruzzo Italy
“The quality of the terrain, selection of the grape varieties, limited production and maturation in small oak barrels (barriques) give our wines the perfumes and flavors characteristic to the ancient Tuscan tradition. To be drunk with conviction by those who love wine.”

1st Course
Brodetto alla Pesce
 
Wine-Tiberio Pecorino Colline Pescaresi IGP
“Pale bright straw green. High-pitched aromas of cantaloupe and hazelnut complement sage, rosemary and green fig. Bright and juicy in the mouth, with a strong impression of extract enlivening the flavors of orange zest, botanical herbs and fresh fruit salad. This is the best Pecorino wine ever made by Tiberio, and it’s also the best, most varietally accurate Pecorino wine of the year.”

2nd Course
Pasta with Marinated Grilled Eggplant, Ricotta and Chiles

Wine-Tiberio Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo (Rose)
“Bright deep pink.  Musky aromas and flavors of dried cherry and rhubarb, with hints of licorice and herbs adding complexity.  Broad and deep on the palate, displaying a chewy, fleshy texture typical of the hot year but also very good freshness.  Finishes with serious grip and lingering florality.” 92 Points
 
Entrée
Porchetta all'Abruzzese
 
Wine-Tiberio Montepulciano d’Abruzzo

“Super-ripe aromas of red cherry, raspberry jelly, quinine and sweet spices with flinty notes emerging slowly with aeration.  Bright and intense, with spicy red plum and cherry-pie flavors nicely framed by lively acidity; 2015 was a warm year, but this wine stays fresh and dances nimbly on the palate.  Finishes long with a fleshy mouthfeel, youthful chewy tannins and insidious sweetness (14% alcohol).  This lovely entry-level Montepulciano offers a lot of wine for the money.” 92 Points

Dessert
Spiced Port Wine Pear Crisp

$45 per person
