Event Details
Join us for a deliciously unique evening that brings together two of our favorite things—cookies and wine—in celebration of Italian Cookies, the latest book from the authority in Italian cooking, Domenica Marchetti.
In this special event, Domenica will share stories and recipes from her newest cookbook, which captures the heart of Italy’s cookie culture—from rustic almond twists and crumbly cornmeal sbrisolona to spiced red wine biscotti meant for dunking. Together, we’ll explore the history and regional influences behind these classic dolci while enjoying a tasting of cookies made with and for wine.
To complement Domenica’s irresistible creations, we’ll be guided through a unique cookie and wine pairing, exploring Italy’s regional flavors through the perfect pairing of wine and dolci.
Get ready for an indulgent tasting that blends culinary storytelling, tradition, and a touch of la dolce vita!
Your ticket includes:
- A guided tasting of Italian cookies and wines
- Conversation with Domenica on the stories and traditions behind Italian Cookies
- Expert insights on Italian wine pairings
Option to pre-purchase copies of Italian Cookies at checkout. A limited number of copies will also be available for purchase at the event.
