Class Description:
For over 20 years, Judy and Gail have been leading lovers of Italian food and wine all around Tuscany on culinary tours for The Cookbook Co. Cooks, and every year, Marco Molesini, the owner of a prominent wine shop in the area, strongly encourages them to bring back a case or two of Brunello for their cellars. We'd like to introduce you to why! Come and taste a selection of Brunello — hand-carried back to Canada for you — and eat the food that accompanies this great cult wine. What could be better a night of Brunello wines and the food that makes them shine? Respectfully, we cannot accommodate dietary restrictions at this event.
