About this Event
Discover the wines of Tuscany with a four-course dinner featuring wines from Ruffino Estates! Each course is paired with a Ruffino wine selected to showcase the rich character, history, and traditions of one of Italy's most celebrated wine regions.
The evening begins with a welcome Prosecco Spritz, followed by a four-course dinner as Ruffino Director and Brand Ambassador, Caterina Corvino Velez, guides guests through each wine pairing. A certified wine professional, Caterina has earned certifications from the Associazione Italiana Sommelier, The Sommelier Society of America, and WSET Level 3 Wine. Throughout the evening, she'll share the stories, history, and winemaking heritage behind each selection, offering a deeper appreciation for the wines of Tuscany.
