A match made in heaven: Italian biscuits and dessert wines

Vin Santo and canutcci from Tuscany may be the most famous combination of dessert wine and biscuits, but we find varieties on the theme from across Italy, from Piedmont to Siciliy.

As well as the classic Tuscan version of cantucci biscuits from Prato with passito wine from Chianti, we’ll also tate:

• Krumiri biscuits from Casale Monferrato together with Moscato Passito from Loazzolo
• Palestrina and Castel San Pietro Romano Giglietto Biscuits (Slow Food Presidium) together with Canellino di Frascati wine
• Cuddrireddra di Delia, a typical sweet from Sicily, together with passito wine from the island of Panetelleria.

To pair, the wines of Avignonesi , Bava., Olivella and Donna Fugata as selected by the Wine Bank of Pollenzo Banca del Vino Pollenzo – Italy

Tickets are available online until September 21. During the event you can purchase any remaining tickets at the Event Reception in Parco Dora.
