Local Event
Cost: 110.00
On March 13, Legal Harborside will host a four-plus-course wine dinner featuring pours originating back to one of the most impressive winery estates in Tuscany, Italy. Known for its rich culture and history dating back to 1560, the Collazzi Estate was privileged with the artistry of Michelangelo when he was commissioned to design and create the estate’s Villa amongst the countryside property south of Florence.
Representing the revered Collazzicollections and his home country, Alberto Torelli’s knowledge for winemaking and agriculture originated from his family’s roots and became a life-long passion. In 2005, Torelli joined the Collazzi team and spearheaded plans to enhance and modernize the techniques of the winery’s winemaking processes. Collazzi Estate’s sandy and clay soils, rich in limestone, with an abundantly rocky texture, make home to grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and a small amount of traditional varieties.
The Collazzi Tuscan wine dinner menu will be presented as follows overlooking the Boston Harbor:
