Piattini Hosts 3-Course Wine Dinner: "Wines of the World", November 4th, 2013

I was so impressed with Piattini's last (Italian) Wine Dinner (read review here), I set up an interview with Owner, Josephine Oliviero Megwa shortly thereafter (read interview & food review here).

November brings another fabulous wine dinner featuring "Wines of the World"! 

On November 4th, 2013 at 6:00PM Piattini, located on Newbury Street in the heart of Boston’s Back Bay, is inviting guests to take a trip through Europe during its “Wines of the World” wine dinner. Guests will enjoy a three-course meal, each paired with a different wine from some of the most renowned wine-producing countries in the world.
 
This three-course dinner will begin with a 2010 Domaine Schlumberger Pinot Blanc wine from Alsace, France, paired with a Mediterranean Seafood Stew lightly simmered in a white wine sauce. The main course features a 2009 Querciaella Mongrana Sangiovese wine from Maremma, Italy along with Bistecca, a juicy Black Angus Rib Eye. Last but not least is the 10 year tawny Ramos Pinot from Portugal paired with a mouthwatering Warm Flourless Chocolate Cake dessert.
