Calabria
is a region of southern Italy filled with history and prized culinary
treasures. From peperoncino to liquorice root, Calabria lays claim to
some of Italy’s most celebrated ingredients.
The American Institute of Wine and Food and Alloro Restaurant invite you to celebrate the delight of Calabrian wines and cuisine.
Inspired from his childhood in Albi, Chef Salvatore Corea has
crafted a four-course feast dedicated to the rich bounty of Calabria.
Chef Corea carefully foraged typical Calabrian ingredients from the
region for this dinner.
Six-time James Beard Award nominee for Outstanding Wine Service Charles Scicolone will
guide you through a flight of specially selected wines of Calabria to
be paired with each course. Mr. Scicolone is an author and educator of
Italian wines who has been featured in The New York Times, Wine
Spectator, and Food Arts, among others.
The evening will include a silent auction including a
Mosefund Farm Tour, a collection of autographed cookbooks by Michele
Scicolone, wines donated by Wine Emporium, as well as a foods of
Calabria gift basket by Louis Coluccio of D. Coluccio and Sons.
