Join us on Saturday, December 6th, @6:30pm for an evening with Italian Cookies, Italian Wine and The Vineyard's Jolly Old Baker. Now in the 5th year of this crazy popular event, we have changed the format.
In past years, we have combined the cookie baking with the cookie & wine pairing. After 4 years, we have realized that some come to intently watch and learn these old-world Italian recipes that have been handed down but never written down**, and some come just to eat cookies, taste wine and laugh like crazy!!
This year's main event on December 6th will be an Italian Cookie and Wine Pairing for those that want to eat cookies, drink wine, and laugh like crazy. We will pair 6 Italian Cookies to include Aunt Marianna's legendary Cucidati (fig cookies) with 6 wines to include wines from our Tuscan collection of DOCG wines from our partner vineyard in Tuscany.
**December 4th, Aunt Marianna will instruct a hands-on cookie baking class for the serious bakers.
This will be a fun and interactive pairing to include suggestions on pairing wines during the holidays, 6 tastings of traditional Italian cookies, 6 wine tastings, stories, trivia for prizes, and question & answer time with the Host Marianna Pellicano. The more wine she drinks, the funnier the stories will become.
Sweet wine tasting is available as an alternative for sweet wine drinkers. Please be sure to choose the sweet wine option at checkout!!
This will be the only opportunity to pre-order Italian Cookies by the pound for pick up the week before Christmas. As a special "Thank You" for sharing this evening, each pairing wine will be available for sale by the bottle (off premise consumption) at a 30% holiday discount so that you can stock up on fantastic wines just in time for The Season.
It's going to be a blast, and we aren't even sure why yet because we never know what she is going to do or say. Hopefully, she doesn't fall off of the stage!!
No printed tickets will be issued, please check in upon arrival. This is a 21 and over event.
For the hands-on Italian Cookie Class on December 4th, please visit our website or our events page on Facebook for ticket information as the class will be very small & intimate.
