100+ Bottles of Italian Wines Opened This Saturday at Enoteca
Donato Enoteca has a wonderful event coming up this weekend in Redwood City. On Saturday, the Enoteca will open 100+ Italian wines from all over: Barolo from Piedmont, Brunello from Tuscany, and many, many more! In addition, you only pay a door fee, and then it’s all you can drink/ all you can eat! Donato will prepare some wonderful appetizers to go with the wines, and the menu includes Porchetta, a typical Italian street food where a whole pig is roasted on a spit, agnolotti dal plin (my favorites!) and other goodies paired perfectly to the wines. How do you pair 100 wines? Well, I am not sure, but if someone can do it it’s Donato!
Now, the best part about this: register for the event using the discount code “italyinsf” and get 10% off the registration fee! Time to go and try some fabulous Italian wines, don’t you think?
