Please join Alfonso Cevola, and me at A16 Rockridge on October 2 and/or A16 San Francisco on October 3rd for a evening celebrating the white wines of Sicily. Alfonso--an expert in all things Italian--is the man behind On the Wine Trail, a blog that embraces the diversity of Italian grapes, wines, food, culture and people. He also happens to be a good friend, which is why he is traveling from his home base in San Antonio to pay us a visit. While there are so many captivating w...ine regions we could have chosen for this evening, we agreed that the exponential increase in quality of white wines from Sicily was well overdue for attention. Many of these wines are worthy of world-class status. I have so much respect for his depth of knowledge in Italian wines. Led by Alfonso, I promise a night of discussion and fun focused on some of the most captivating white wines of this Island. (Of course, we will be pouring red wine, too.) Salute, Shelley Lindgren
