Class Description:
Every year for the last sixteen years Judy and Gail have been leading lovers of Italian food and wine all around Tuscany on culinary tours for The Cookbook Co. - 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!
