Get great wine advice straight from Bice Ristorante
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, how great would it be to go to an exclusive wine dinner complete with an open question and answer forum? Sounds to me like a great way to learn about different varietals to ensure that you can impress your Valentine with your wine knowledge and purchase. On top of all of that valuable information, you are sure to get a great meal and a priceless experience.
Bice Ristorante is hosting a wine dinner on Thursday, January 23rd, in conjunction with Graziano Family of Wines. For only $65 per person you can enjoy a five course meal with your friends all the while learning about everything that is presented before you. Were you to pay for all the items presented you would pay well over $135 per person, so not only is this a great opportunity, it’s a definite bargain.
Bice restaurants can be found around the country as well as internationally and have a reputation for providing stellar Italian fare and providing diners with an upscale experience.. The Scottsdale location is staffed by knowledgeable and extremely attentive wait staff. They offer an eclectic wine menu, a solid and approachable happy hour menu as well as a varied dinner menu.
Below is the special menu that will be featured this coming Thursday:
