A new Dinner with Wine Tasting and Food Pairing opens the doors to Autumn 2024 on Friday 4 October, and this time we are delighted to have found a truly special partner: Trattoria di Coronate, in the province of Milan!

Trattoria di Coronate, the fireplace
Guided by the skilful hands and minds of the Tacchella Family, Trattoria di Coronate is a remarkable stronghold of artisanal Italian and Lombard culinary tradition, with an endless wine list (and, it must be said, incredibly affordable prices).
Set in the plain of Milan's hinterland, just 40 minutes from the city centre yet surrounded by woodland and farmland that recall Lombardy's agricultural heritage, Trattoria di Coronate is located at Cascina Coronate, Morimondo, on the road towards Vigevano.

Riesling wine tasting and food pairing
Together with Sommelier Paolo Tacchella and the Trattoria's Chef, our own Jose David Ramirez has devised a food and wine pairing journey dedicated to one of the noblest grape varieties of all: Riesling.
A versatile variety, able like few others to express the terroir in which it is grown, Riesling will be showcased in all its nuances, from dry to sweet, from various areas of Alsace and Germany, to accompany the dishes of Trattoria di Coronate.
Curious to learn more about the Riesling grape and its expressions? We have published a comprehensive technical and theoretical guide here!
Together, we will taste these wines and vintages:
Famille Dietrich Vignerons, Alsace Riesling Lanzenberg 2022
Weingut Von Hovel, Saar Riesling Niedermenninger Trocken 2019
Domaine Bernard Haas, Alsace Grand Cru Riesling Schlossberg 2019
Weingut Dr. Wehrheim, Birkweiler Dachsberg Erste Lage Riesling Trocken 2020
Weingut Von Hovel, Scharzhofberger Grosse Lage Riesling Kabinett 2018
Weingut Dr. Wehrheim, Kastanienbusch Grosse Lage Riesling Auslese 2015
Wine Tasting Dinner: the pairing menu
To accompany this progression of Rieslings, the Chef of Trattoria di Coronate will present a challenging menu, playing with different textures and flavours and debunking the "meat = red wine" myth along the way.
The following courses will be served:
Savoury choux bun filled with porcini on a potato cream
Onion stuffed with salami paste on fondue with a Parmigiano crisp
Fusilloni with quail ragù and foie gras
Duck breast with brandy, roasted celeriac cream and sautéed chard
Selection of cheeses
