Dear guests, we love wine and the people that produce it. We’re strictly connected with our Italian tradition, where wine and food are inextricably linked. For this reason, in the menu you will find first winerys and wines by glass and immediatly after the dishes that our Chef create paired to them. As is done for you, we report here in the same order the four actions we do to create our menus: meet the winegrower, taste his wine, observe its organoleptic characteristics, and at the end, we create one dish for that wine. You will find two prices shown in the menu, the first refers togheter to a glass of wine and dish, the second one refers only to the dish. For any inquiries or information we are there at your disposal, We wish you to enjoy “our” tasting experience, Anna, Davide and Eugenio
