Familia Zuccardi Hosts An Argentine Winemaker Dinner At King George II Inn
Familia Zuccardi, Mendoza, Argentina kicks off Hispanic Heritage Month with a gala Winemaker Dinner on Wednesday, September 10 hosted by Señor José Alberto Zuccardi, proprietor of Familia Zuccardi. The King George II Inn (102 Radcliffe Street; Bristol, PA), known as "the oldest continuously operated inn in America," in the beautiful historical and waterfront district of Bristol, PA is the perfect site for fiesta fun! The evening will begin with a reception at 6:30 PM followed by a sublime five-course dinner at 7:00 PM created by Chef Steven Ward (C.I.A.). Sommelier Jeff Brenner has selected a medley of Familia Zuccardi's finest wines to accompany this feast. Tickets are $55.00 (plus tax and tip) per person.
José Alberto Zuccardi is a fearless innovator experimenting with grape varieties new to Argentina. He cares passionately for the land and its people and will introduce his royal guests to an evening of award winning wines produced from grapes that are grown and hand picked right on the Zuccardi estate.
