Join us to celebrate SICE's first event of the season! Look out over the crystal clear waters of Sarasota Bay and enjoy a Wine Tasting Dinner featuring the culinary delights skillfully prepared by award winning chef, Anthony Puccio, based on a menu created by Susanna Wriston inspired by a discovery of dishes from the Italian peninsula and islands to discover Italy when it was made up of Papal States, Kingdoms and Republics. All dishes will be paired with selected wines made from 100% indigenous Italian grape varietals! A culinary and wine experience you will not find anywhere else.
