Wine Enthusiast and Villa Sparina this spring season held an exclusive dinner experience to celebrate the accomplishments of the wine.
The beauty of the region and exquisite wines were showcased as nearly two dozen guests gathered gathered in the intimate loft at Il Buco Alimentari & Vineria.
The Monterotondo is the Villa Sparina Cru is made from complex grapes from a rich history. Produced separately and by artisanal methods, the Monterotondo showcases characteristics that balance the Cortese grape and the land’s minerality, tangy salinity, acidity, and strength. The white wine is elegant and a noteworthy mark in history that only improves as the decades go by in time.
Wine pairings on the menu started with Razor Clam Crudo, Lioni Burrata and a delicious Funghi Pizza. Alongside the plates guests took in sips from Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2018, Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2017 and Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2015.
The night then followed up with delicious Whole Roasted Branzino, Torchio and Cast Iron Wild Rice served along with Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2014, Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2013, and Villa Sparina Monterotondo 2007.
Known for their structural balance and shared harmony from the territorial region, the unmistakable bottle shape of the line is symbolic of their joyous presentation. From start to finish, Villa Sparina offers joyful bliss in each sip.
Here is to enjoying your own beautiful glass at home this weekend.
