19/05 - Italian Wine Dinner
On Tuesday 19 May, we’ll be hosting our next wine dinner at Cigalon - an evening built around a medley of Italian wines, chosen to sit alongside a seasonal menu from Head Chef Julien Carlon and the Cigalon kitchen.
The final wine list is still being shaped, but the spirit of the evening is clear: generous bottles, good food, and the chance to explore Italy through a range of styles, regions and pairings. As ever, the dinner will be relaxed, hosted and full of conversation - an opportunity to discover new wines without ceremony, and to enjoy them in the warmth of Cigalon’s beautiful dining room.
