Castello Banfi Wine Dinner at Ristorante LIDI
Tickets are now available for Ristorante LIDI's next special event, Castello Banfi Wine Dinner, where you'll enjoy five succulent, authentic Italian dishes paired with the famous wines of Banfi. These wines are born of a passion and love for unique terroirs, from continuous research, and from the intimate knowledge of different territories and the ability to marry time tested and respected techniques with innovative solutions in both the vineyard and the winery. The splendid vineyards of Montalcino and Chianti, of Piedmont and the Tuscan coast, are the ideal cradle for wines of great character and outstanding quality.
Chef Jason Colon has created for you a menu worthy of and complimented by each excellent wine selection.
First Course: Arugula, Red Grape, Granny Smith, and Prosciutto Salad Paired with Principessa Gavi Perlante, Gavi DOCG The grapes are grown at the Principessa Gavia single vineyard estate, located in the classic Gavi region of Novi Ligure, producing a unique expression of the Cortesedi Gavi grape variety. The particular pétillant character of this wine is achievedduring the vinification of select, ripe Cortese grapes,with the highest sugar content.
Second Course: Seared Scallops, Caper Raisin Emulsion, Fresh Nutmeg, Micro Basil Paired with San Angelo Toscana IGT Pinot Grigio Grown in the southern hills of Montalcino, 300 meters above sea level. Thanks to the Montalcino microclimate, this Tuscan Pinot Grigio adds to the typical aromas of this variety an unusual body, flavour and balance with a small and natural effervescence.
Third Course: Butternut Squash Ravioli, Brown Butter, sage, and Truffle Honey Paired with Belnero Toscana IGT Belnero is the expression of the solid and indissoluble connection of Banfi with Montalcino territory. This wine celebrates Banfi's experience, passion and 30 years commitment to quality in the vineyard as well as in the winery. Belnero is produced mainly with Sangiovese, the emblematic grape of Montalcino tradition, blended from time to time with those International varieties found in the region, their most favorable habitat. Belnero, with its powerful and well balanced structure, is ideal for a long aging.
Fourth Course: Roasted Half Duck, Braised Lentils, Pancetta, Sage, and Cinnamon Paired with Brunello Di Montalcino, DOCG A "classic" of Banfi production, this Brunello di Montalcino is obtained with clones of Sangiovese selected after 20 years of research on this unique grape, and is aged in French oak barrels and Slavonian barrels. It is the most aristocratic combination of Montalcino tradition with winemaking modernity.
5th Course: Rosa Regale Brachetto Molten Chocolate Cake, Espresso Anglaise, Fresh Berries Paired with Rosa Regale Brachetto D'Acqui DOCG Vinified from Brachetto grapes grown in the single "La Rosa" vineyard, in the town of Acqui Terme, the very heart of the historical area of Brachetto. A soft red sparkling wine that is extremely aromatic, complex and historic. The cold maceration of the grapes followed by a soft pressing allows the extraction of the typical intense aromas from the skins, and gives to the wine its characteristic light ruby red color. Very pleasant and extremely elegant.
