Berlucchi at Identità Golose NY and Chicago 09/10
The fifth edition of the iconic Identità Golose culinary congress will be presented at Eataly, New York, from October 9th to 12th and Chicago, October 14th-16th. The congress brings together some of the finest names in international haute cuisine to host cooking seminars and 5-course pairing dinners. Berlucchi Franciacorta is proud to be sponsoring this year’s U.S. tour, and will present various vintages of their acclaimed Franciacorta in dinners and seminars throughout the conference.
During Identità Golose, Berlucchi is proud to introduce the award-winning, Berlucchi Riserva Palazzo Lana Satèn 2006 from the Franciacorta maison. "It's my favorite Franciacorta," admits Cristina Ziliani, Berlucchi Director of Communications, who also will be present at Identità NY and Chicago. "The name Palazzo Lana Satèn is inspired by the place where Guido Berlucchi, noble, and my father Franco, winemaker and inventor of Franciacorta, met for the first time. It is a reserve of rare elegance, just from Chardonnay grapes, that rests for more than six years on the lees", continues Ziliani. "I am proud to present our Satèn for the first preview in the States: with its alluring fragrances, it will seduce the American public." For the first dinner at “La Birreria” on Friday, October 9th (NY), the Berlucchi Riserva Palazzo Lana Satèn 2006 will be paired with the antipasto course from Chef Ugo Alciati and Chef Danny Imbroisi, “Gnocco di Zucca” and on Saturday, October 10th (NY) it will be matched with the antipasto course from Chef Massimo Bottura and Chef Lorenzo Cogo, “Caviar Back The Future.”
Throughout the cooking seminars in New York and Chicago, the Berlucchi Franciacorta '61 Rosé and Berlucchi Franciacorta '61 Brut will be paired with a variety of dishes from chefs including Rosanna Martial, April Bloomfield, Monosilio Luciano and Lorenzo Cogo. To highlight the versatile and food-friendly aspects of Franciacorta, the wine will be paired with dishes ranging from Dorade in Lemon and Pistachio Oil (Chef Bloomfield, Oct. 11th) to Chicken and Pistachio Ravioli (Chef Cogo, Oct. 12th) to Roasted Cauliflower with Oregano, Olives and Grapes (Chef Lee Wolen, October 16th.)
