An Evening in Campania - Pop Up Dinner Party 1.11.18

Campania is a region in Southern Italy.  Few places in the world have such beautiful scenery as Naples and the Amalfi Coast, which also happens to have the highest concentration of Michelin starred restaurants in Europe outside of Paris and London.  Wine has been made in Campania for three millennia, making it one of Europe’s oldest viticultural regions. Enjoy an evening of specialty foods from this famous region along with wines from the Mustilli Family, a winery in Campania that has been producing since the 14^th century.  Friday evening’s Dinner Party will host winemaker Annachiara Mustilli where she will expertly pair her family’s wines with the evening’s meal, sharing stories and history from this celebrated food province.

Special Guest – Annachiata Mustilli from Mustilli Winery
