Southern Italian Wine Pairing Dinner

Mon, Oct 19 · 6:00 PM Piece Out Del Ray

Come hungry, come curious, and leave with a deeper love for Southern Italy — one glass at a time. Join us for an evening south of Rome — where sun-baked hillsides, volcanic soil, and centuries of tradition shape some of Italy's most soulful wines. This October, we turn our attention to a different corner of Italy—Sicily—pairing a curated selection of regional wines with dishes inspired by the coastal and countryside kitchens of Southern Italy. Celebrate the rustic, ingredient-driven spirit of the South — from handmade pastas to fresh seafood. Each course is thoughtfully paired to highlight what makes these wines, and this region, so distinct. Cantine Pellegrino Il Salinaro Grillo Pan Seared Scallop Seared sea scallops on a Sicilian-style salad with briny green olives, capers, and pistachios Cantine Ermes Epicentro Bianco Classic Sicilian Pasta a la Norma Eggplant sautéed in olive oil and served with hand rolled casarecce in a rich tomato sauce garnished with ricotta salata Terrazze Dell’Etna Carusu Cioppino Sicilian seafood stew with shrimp, clams, mussels, and local fresh catch simmered in a tomato and wine broth Pellegrino Passiflora, Nero D’Avola House-made Fennel Pork Sausage Coarsely ground savory pork sausage infused with cracked black pepper and toasted fennel seeds, served alongside slow-caramelized sweet fennel ribbons Ermes Epicentro Nero D’Avola Riserva Sfincia di san Giuseppe Fried pastry with sweet ricotta, dark chocolate, and candied blood orange Doors open at 6pm, and the first course will be served at 6:30. Whether you’re a connoisseur or simply a lover of great food and wine, you're guaranteed to learn something new and meet some new friends! Ticket price includes tax and gratuity. This thoughtfully curated multi-course menu crafted by our chef is designed with precise pairings in mind, and as such, we are unable to accommodate menu substitutions.

Welcome to AskAlice

Hi, I'm Alice.

I go out a lot around DC, Virginia and Maryland, and I got tired of losing hours to Instagram Stories and a dozen venue calendars just to find out what was happening. So I built this to do that watching for me — real, confirmed events pulled from hundreds of sources, sorted so you can find your night instead of hunting for it.
