Exceptional wines from Vinattieri 365 will be paired with each course to highlight the depth and nuance of the flavors.

Special Guest: Giacomo Marinello

Trained at London’s Michelin-starred Locanda Locatelli under the renowned Giorgio Locatelli, Chef Giacomo Marinello brings a legacy of Italian culinary excellence to Chicago. After years in elite kitchens and as a private chef, he founded Marinello Tartufi to address the lack of quality truffles in the market. Today, he imports the finest truffles year-round from the San Pietro a Pettine Estate, ensuring chefs and diners alike experience the true essence of Italy’s most prized ingredient.
