French Wine Tasting at Ristorante Grande Pino, Messina

Degustazione Vini di Francia al Ristorante Grande Pino di Messina

A new French wine tasting with food pairings, organised together with Ristorante Grande Pino in Sant'Agata di Militello (ME): "Passeggiata tra le vigne di Francia e le fronde del Grande Pino" (A Stroll through the Vineyards of France and the Boughs of the Great Pine)

A tasting of French wines from small vignerons and récoltants, with paired dishes

From Champagne, by way of the Loire Valley and Burgundy, ending with a trip through the French Pre-Alps in Savoy: a unique and enjoyable journey awaits us on Monday 2 March in Messina. Together with our friends at Ristorante Grande Pino, we will have the pleasure of presenting the wines of these regions, their distinctive features and their differences in terroir and style, and of answering every question our tasting guests may have. What’s more, thanks to the wonderful local seafood cuisine, we will sample a range of dishes paired with wines from the Wine Terroir Selection.

As always, places are limited!

When: Monday 2 May 2022, 8 pm

Where: Ristorante Il Grande Pino - Contrada San Giuseppe 78, Sant'Agata di Militello (ME)
