Super Tuscan Wine Dinner
with Ambrogio Cremona Ratti of Tenuta Sette Cieli
We’re excited to present our first Bolgheri wine dinner showcasing the remarkable wines of Tenuta Setti Cieli, located along Tuscany’s scenic coast. This region is celebrated for its Cabernet-based blends and forward-thinking approach in the Italian wine world.
Tenuta Sette Cieli, a relatively young yet highly acclaimed winery, is helmed by Ambrogio, whose sole focus is producing exceptional Bordeaux varietal wines. Renowned labels like Scipio and Indaco have garnered widespread acclaim from top critics and wine journalists globally, earning their place as some of Bolgheri's most sought-after wines.
During this exclusive dinner, we’ll feature all four of Ambrogio’s wines from various vintages, providing Chef Ty and our culinary team the opportunity to craft a distinctive Restaurant Olivia-style menu. The featured wines—Yantra, Scipio, Indaco, and Noi 4—each offer unique expressions based on their blends.
Join us for an intimate gathering of just 12 guests at our community table, where you’ll enjoy unparalleled access to Ambrogio’s insights. Together, we’ll savor five expertly crafted courses, each thoughtfully paired with six of Tenuta Sette Cieli’s finest wines, with a Champagne welcome to kick off the evening. This promises to be a night of exceptional wine, food, and convivial company.
