"This is another set of gorgeous wines from the Rocca family. As has been the case now for some years, the wines are marked by striking translucence and tons of site character… Readers who have not tasted these wines recently owe it to themselves to do so, as the transformation here of late towards wines of purity and finesse is significant.” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous

We’re beyond thrilled to host Daniela Rocca from the star Barbaresco producer Albino Rocca, for a rare chance to be guided through many of the most important terroirs of Barbaresco. These are gorgeously classical wines, and extremely well-priced.
Piemonte wines have a very special affinity for food of course, and we’re extremely proud of the menu we’ve selected in collaboration with our good friends over at E'cco Bistro. We’ve sought to combine some more traditional, homely ingredients and recipes, with an elegant contemporary execution to round things off in style. For long-term fans of our past events as well as any newcomers, this will be one fantastic evening to kick off our dinner events for 2024!
Tickets sold on first come first served basis, so we recommend those keen to get in quick before they sell out!
