Traditionally, Pinot Noir has been regarded as the most
food-friendly varietal. An experienced panel of sommeliers and chefs will put
this assumption to the test, pairing a variety of dishes with a selection of Pinots
from around the world. Festivities kick off with Sumac Ridge Sparkling Pinnacle
then will fl ow seamlessly into an exploration of
dishes paired to Ca’ del Bosco Pinero Rosso del Sebino IGT
2003, Dobbes Family Estate Griffi n’s Cuvee Pinot Noir 2004, Mirassou Santa Lucia
Highlands Pinot Noir and Jean Charles Boisset Evocelles. The all-star team of chefs
behind the dishes will be Philadelphia’s Tony Lawrence (A Chef For You), Blair
Rasmussen (VCEC), Julian
Bond (PICA), and Dino Renaerts (Diva at the Met).

"From screwcaps and labels, to bottle weights, POS and marketing materials, and much more, the festival remains a treasure trove of information for the wide-eyed and inquisitive." - Anthony Gismondi
