Wine OR Wine & Food

Who has the sharpest nose, an impeccable, palate, the widest breadth of knowledge for all things food & wine….find out at the Sommelier Smackdown! If you think Sommeliers are all frilly, posh, and high-brow, think again. On this night, the sleeves will be rolled up, the corks popped, and the pairing wars will begin! Iron Chef Louis DiBiccari and Ian Grossman of Sel de la Terre will be cooking/mediating while the winner of the October Smackdown, will go up against the "challenger," Julie Cappellano of South End Formaggio. Both will be grappling for the satisfaction and agreement of your taste buds. Four courses, 8 wines, two wines with each course….you be the judge of who is the master of food & wine pairing. Let the games...begin!
