Il Caminetto Presents: Allegrini The Benchmark of the Veneto

Event Description

Uncover the majestic heritage of the Veneto alongside Jim Williams of Appellation Wines in a hyper-exclusive, intimate seating. The Veneto is uniquely celebrated for a breathtaking viticultural spectrum—ranging from vibrant, mineral-driven whites to the profound, opulent reds born of the region's traditional appassimento (grape-drying) technique. As one of the most historically significant houses in the area, Allegrini represents the absolute gold standard across this entire stylistic journey, mastering both ancient traditions and relentless innovation.

To honor this legacy, Culinary Director James Walt, Executive Chef Mark Mcloughlin, and their team have meticulously designed a masterclass, terroir-driven multi-course menu to perfectly match an extraordinary progression of Allegrini’s portfolio. The evening will seamlessly guide guests through the quintessential Veneto profile, moving from crisp elegance to the event's show-stopping centerpiece: a rare, comparative tasting of Allegrini's iconic La Poja Veronese IGT. Poured exclusively from large-format magnums, guests will have the privilege of exploring the profound depth and complexity of both the 2012 and 2016 vintages side-by-side.

We warmly invite you to take your seat for an evening that promises a flawless harmony of masterful storytelling and exceptional gastronomy.
