Join Savor Tonight and fellow wine + food enthusiasts, as we take a trip to Italy. We will be stopping Via Verdi for an Italian Wine Dinner on Tues., Oct. 14th. Via Verdi — a new addition to the MiMo District — is brought to you by twins Nicola and Fabrizio Carro (who you may know from Quattro), along with mixologist Cristiano Vezzoli. On the menu, expect rustic Italian cuisine with a contemporary flair. As for the setting, inside you’ll find an intimate space that is charming and inviting. Outside seating is available on the patio and gives you a more relaxed feel.
For this event, we’ll be teaming up with Ben Neji from Veritas Wines, a boutique wine Importer & Distributor based in South Florida, who will walk us through the tasting.
