Wine Dinner featuring Tavignano Winery

with winemaker Paolo Novelli

Join us at Taurasi Restaurant in downtown Westmont (steps from the metra station) on Wednesday, October 19th, at 6:30pm for a spectacular and authentic 4 course wine dinner featuring Beivuma, a local importer of fine Italian wines!

Taurasi's chef/owner/sommelier, Raffaele Cirillo, will take you on a culinary journey of Italy featuring wines from the Tavignano winery estate and its winemaker Paolo Novelli, who will be here from Italy to join us for the first time in the history of Westmont!

Raffaele’s menu creates a dining experience reminiscent of a typical southern Italian "Sunday family dinner out" in Westmont, and showcases the versatility and quality of wines from Marche.

The event will be hosted by wine maker Paolo Novelli, and two certified sommeliers will provide additional information on all of the wines tasted. Italians doing what they do best, this time with the winemaker himself, promises to be a special night that you won't want to miss!

Cost is only $80 per person (plus tax/gratuity). Space is limited and will sell out quickly. Reserve your spot at the link provided, or call the restaurant at 630-663-9467.
