Our 1st Wine Dinner: The Taste of Sicily, December 2, 2021

“Intense dynamic varietal” wines from the Firriato Winery carrying labels belonging to the Trapani countryside will be paired with chef-curated traditional Sicilian dishes such as Arancini (a wonderful appetizer consisting of stuffed rice balls) and Puttanesca (Seafood style with Linguine).
