WineChannelTV attended the “Serata Friulana” dinner at Le Cirque restaurant in NYC for Vino2010 and captured the highlights on video for all
The dinner was hosted by the Chamber of Commerce of Udine (Friuli Venezia Giulia ) and the Italian Trade Commission-ICE.
The room was filled with Friuli winemakers pouring their finest. Le Cirque chefs were cooking away to compliment the wines a in a buffet-style manner. I had high hopes of the cuisine at Le Cirque, but unfortunately Le Cirque did not live up to them.
If anything I would head back for a glass of vino, their wine cellar was amazing!
The event was a wonderful display of Friuli, just another hidden region of Italy, that many people should take the time to learn about.
Watch WineChannelTV and JustJess speak with Wine Expert/Writer Michael Apstein and others to see their take on the event!
And I want to know, have you tried a wine from Friuli and how was the experience? Mine was memorable!
Cheers!
