Wine Dinner with Azienda Agricola Giacomo Fenocchio

Wednesday, May 4th - 6:30pm

It is no secret that we are one of Giacomo Fenocchio's biggest fans. 

Five generations of Fenocchios’ have been producing wine from their land in Monforte d’Alba since 1894. Claudio is a master at crafting classic Baroli that express the true essence of the Nebbiolo grape. 

Join us and Alice Pressenda, Claudio's niece, this upcoming Wednesday and taste some of the best cru Baroli out there including the sought after Bussia and Villero cru's

And what better way to showcase Fenocchios wines than to pair them with Donato's exquisite Piemontese cuisine.

call (650) 701-1000
and ask for the "Cascina Val del Prete Winemaker Dinner"

We couldn't think of a better way to restart our Winemaker Dinners at Donato Enoteca than by having our dear friend Mario Roagna's winery, Cascina Val del Prete, with us this upcoming April 5th, 2022.

We will have none other than Mario's son, Giovanni Roagna, join us for a tantalizing evening tasting and learning about the Roero appellation, all accompanied by a sumptuous menu by Donato Scotti that captures the essence of Piemonte.

"The Roero, often dwarfed by its more famous neighbors Barolo and Barbaresco, is an Italian wine region that every Italian and Nebbiolo wine lover should know."

It is there, in the Roero, that Cascina Val Del Prete has been a leading grower since 1977, recognized for a commitment to natural farming and for traditional work in the cellar, utilizing techniques such as long maceration. This type of farming and cellar work requires incredible commitment, but the resulting wines achieve another level of detail and age-worthiness that is quite simply lost or minimized with more modern techniques that tend to rush processes along.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2022
