A lovely Wine Pairing at Castiglia's on February 13, 2010

Dining RoomAlways in the mood to consume good food and wine, we joined our friends Ed and Vickie, Jim and Margaret, Bob, and Ralph at Castiglia's on William Street for "An Evening of Fine Food and Italian Wine".  What a bargain: generous servings of food and wine refills for $40/person.  We won't want to miss another one!


Our Menu with Wines from Siema Wines:

  • Formaggio di Fontina Invecchiato (aged Fontina cheese).  Wine: La Cappuccina Varon Bianco (Veneto)
  • Bruschetta Caprese (Bruschetta with fresh tomato, basil and mozzarella).  Wine: Villa D'Orvieto (Umbria)
  • Bucatini alla Matricina (Pasta in a sauce of fresh tomato and pancetta).  Wine: La Cappuccina Verona Rosso (Veneto)
  • Polla Caprese (Chicken Carpise).  Wine:  Villa D'Rosso Toscano (Tuscany).  My Favorite!
  • Torta de Carota (Carron Cake).  Wine:  Chiarli Lambrusco Dolce (Emilia-Romagna
All of the wines average $10 per bottle.
