The Event

Northern Italy, from terroirs to great wines

 

For one evening, the Sky Rooftop takes you on a journey through Northern Italy, from the Dolomites to the Ligurian coast, by way of Lombardy, Veneto and Piedmont.

 

Our chef Paolo Principe has created a five-course menu inspired by emblematic recipes from these regions. Each dish is paired with a wine chosen from among the great names of Italian winemaking and a few lesser-known discoveries: Franciacorta from Ca’ del Bosco, Foradori’s “Fuoripista” Pinot Grigio, Giuseppe Quintarelli’s Primofiore and a Barolo from La Spinetta.

 

Throughout the dinner, our sommeliers introduce you to the estates, their stories and the secrets behind each pairing. To finish, an Amaretto Sour pays tribute to amaretto’s Lombard origins.

The Winemakers: Four Estates from Northern Italy

For this journey, our sommeliers have brought together great names of Italian winemaking and a lesser-known discovery, each representing a region of the menu.

 

Ca’ del Bosco – Lombardy
The elegance of Franciacorta’s bubbles to open the evening.

 

Foradori – Trentino, Dolomites · The Discovery
Forget the classic Pinot Grigio. With the “Fuoripista” cuvée, born in the heart of the Dolomites, skin-contact maceration reveals an unexpected side of this grape.

 

Giuseppe Quintarelli – Veneto · The Signature
Behind this cuvée lies one of the most respected names in Italian winemaking. The Primofiore is a wonderful way to discover the estate’s expertise, through an elegant and expressive wine.

 

La Spinetta – Piedmont · The Great Wine
Piedmont offers one of its greatest treasures: Barolo. With La Spinetta, discover all the nobility of Nebbiolo, with depth, finesse and elegance.
