4/13 Monday Night Wine Dinner: New Wave Italy
April 13, 2026 05:00 PM until April 13, 2026 09:00 PM
Begin the week the Italian way—around the table with great food, great wine, and genuine company. Each Monday, we highlight a different winemaker or Italian wine region with an intimate three-course prix fixe menu and featured pairings. Meet the winemaker or estate representative, discover the stories behind each bottle, and enjoy dishes inspired by the diverse regional traditions of Italy.
Vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options are always available. Join us for a weekly celebration of Italy’s terroir, table, and timeless hospitality.
Small Producer. Big Ideas.
Filippo Grasso, Contrada Palui, and De Monaco & Holland are three small producers rewriting the story of Italian wine — one native grape, one neglected region, one bold idea at a time. On the fire-forged slopes of Mount Etna, Filippo Grasso coaxes remarkable expression from Carricante and Nerello Mascalese, wines that taste unmistakably of volcanic soil and mountain air. In the Veneto hills, Contrada Palui takes a quieter path — honoring traditional local varieties through meticulous vineyard work that lets freshness and regional character speak for themselves. And in Umbria, De Monaco & Holland brings a cross-cultural lens to one of Italy's most historic winemaking landscapes, crafting small-production wines that are rooted in the past but pointed firmly forward. Together they represent a new generation of Italian producers: independent, curious, and unapologetically themselves.
Join us on Monday, 4/13, as Patrick Houghton of Wine Down Selections pours through the lineup and brings these producers to life over a dinner worth staying up for.
