Piedmont is a large beautiful region surrounded by the Alps on the border of France and Switzerland. Piedmont gets it's name from mid-evil Latin meaning 'at the foot of the mountains'.It has gorgeous mountains and hills dotted with valleys and lakes throughout. The Piemonte hills tend to be covered with thick fog, providing the perfect environment for the famous Nebbiolo grape ('nebbia' means fog in Italian). We've invited Michael Alberty of Storyteller Wines will be with us for this event to celebrate this fantastic region of wine and food.
