Join us on October 29th as we welcome Giorgio Bava of Giulio Cocchi. Cocchi has been producing high-quality vermouth and sparkling wines since 1891, and Giorgio currently manages all of Cocchi's export business.

This will be an fun, informative evening spent discovering the versatility of vermouth. Although vermouth is often associated with martinis and Manhattans, vermouth is actually much more - it's wine! This intriguing spirit has been fortified and aromatized with herbs, spices, roots, flowers and citrus. Like wine, vermouth comes in a wide range of styles - from bright to dry, bittersweet to rich, and even dessert-like in nature.

Together we'll spend the evening with Giorgio learning about the delicious world of vermouth, how it's made and how it can pair with food, not just cocktails.
