The Restaurant @ Donnybrook Fair
is delighted to welcome Cesare Benvenuto
from Pio Cesare on Wednesday 28th
September at 7.45pm to host an Italian wine dinner. Cesare will introduce a selection of
traditional Piemontese wines which have been produced by his family for five
generations in their ancient cellars, located in the town of Alba. The evening is priced at €60 per person or €100 per couple.
These wines will be
paired with a four
course menu, including traditional Italian fare, specially selected for the
occasion by Ben Anderson, Head Chef of The Restaurant @ Donnybrook Fair. Each
of the wines featured will be available to purchase at a reduced price on the
night.
The Pio Cesare winery was founded in 1881 by the family’s great
great-grandfather Cesare Pio. He was one of the very first wine producers to
believe in the great potential and quality of Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera and
in the other great wines of Piemonte. In
addition to its own vineyards, Pio Cesare has fostered long-term relationships
with growers for several generations, managing all aspects of viticulture in
these vineyards.
Cesare’s wines are fermented and aged using
modern winemaking techniques in tandem with the traditional methods of the
region. After ageing in large casks and barriques of different French oaks the
wines are further bottle-aged before their release. All these elements contribute to the
continuously high quality of the wines of Pio Cesare, while paying tribute to
the vines and to the terroir.
