Salon Tasting: Sagrantino
with Jay Raffaldini

Saturday, January 25
$50 General Admission | $45 Wine Club

Take your taste buds on a journey with Owner Jay Raffaldini as we explore the rare Sagrantino varietal. Jay has curated a flight of four top examples of this expressive red from around the world, including our very own Sagrantino, Il Falco. The wines will be presented blind allowing you to focus on the differences in flavor and texture, and so you can explore your sensory abilities and gain a new appreciation for this wonderful varietal.

From our winemaker, Chris Nelson, “The Salon tastings are my favorite events at Raffaldini as we get to learn more about how our wines fit into the overall picture of Italian wines. Blind tastings are the most informative way to learn about wine. Jay always makes this an entertaining event as well as very educational. Hope to see you on the 25th as we explore Sagrantino, the most tannic grape in the world.”

Join Jay in the barrel room of the Raffaldini winery for this intimate tasting experience. This event is limited to 48 guests. Antipasti will be provided by Bottles & Boards.

It’s the height of Prohibition in 1920s Chicago, and there’s a mob war brewing between the South Side Gangsters and the Northern Chicago Mob Outfit. The two ruthless crime leaders Hal Sapone and Beanie O’Dannon have finally reached an agreement on bootlegging practices in Chicago and have decided to pull together resources to undergo a collaborative effort with criminal endeavors.

On the surface, this strategy seems similar to bailing out a sinking ship with tin cups, nevertheless.

Recently, gangsters from the north and south have been spotted together at various speakeasies throughout Chicago, but the tension in the air is always thick enough to be cut with a knife. However, this newfound relationship between the opposing mob bosses has served, thus far, to inhibit gratuitous bloodshed as in the past. Part of the success of this truce is that both crime bosses have found new dames, thereby intertwining more mutual relationships between the two factions.

The two sides will meet at Raffaldini Vineyards to resolve all remaining differences. Will these two underground organizations resolve their disputes or will a massive melee erupt, rekindling the fatal flames between them? This is where our dinner begins.
