Wednesday, March 4th
The Fontodi winery is nestled in the “golden basin” known as Conca d’Ora, south of Panzano in Chianti Classico. The Manetti family, owners of Fontodi, crafts some of the most sublime Sangiovese ever made.
Regarded by many as a "Champion of Sangiovese", the Fontodi estate has been the most prominent Sangiovese producer in the region. Their pursuit for a perfect expression of Sangiovese brought them to create their most renowned wine, Flaccianello delle Pieve.
We are truly honored of welcoming none other than Fontodi’s Federico Manetti who will share his passion and, among other wines, several vintages of their flagship wine Flaccianello with us.
To accompany this unique occasion Donato and GIanluca will pair Fontodi's extraordinary wines with a multicourse Tuscan feast.

Founded in 1921 by Paolo Scavino, and now with Elisa Scavino at the helm, the family consistently produces some of the most memorable Piemontese wines today. It is difficult to think of a better exposure to intelligent, sophisticated Barolo than these.

The great traditionalist estate of Francesco Rinaldi e Figli is one of the greatest names in Piemonte. Located in the town of Barolo itself, it was founded in 1870, when Francesco Rinaldi inherited the vineyard.
Fast forward to the present and Francesco Rinaldi crafts wines of pure beauty from Barolo, Castiglione Falletto and La Morra, three of the most important villages in the Barolo area, always upholding the traditionalist style of Barolo, with no new oak, long macerations and long aging in large Slavonian oak botti prior to bottling.
Among the many wines we will taste during the evening we are very excited to be able to share with you Rinaldi's two flagship wines: the single cru Cannubi and the single cru Brunate going back to 2007. All paired with a sumptuous Piemontese menu.
Join us Thursday January 30th on welcoming La Fiorita Winery

Donato Enoteca is capping off 2019 in full Piemontese style with Damilano Winery and Alba White Truffles.
The Damilano winery carries with it more than 100 years of winemaking history in the heart of Italy's most dynamic, competitive, and prestigious wine zone; Barolo. Damilano is one of the oldest wineries in Barolo, dating back to 1890, when Giuseppe Borgogno started cultivating grapes and producing wine from his own vineyards. Giacomo Damilano, the founder’s son-in-law, took over the winery operation in 1935 turning the winery into a “jewel” of the Langhe area. The Damilano name stands, not only for longevity, but for top quality.
Join us for our last wine dinner of the year at Donato Enoteca and taste the wines of Damilano winery. Italian wine specialist Chris Miller will be representing Damilano and he has prepared a fabulous lineup which will include the famed and prized crus of Cannubi and Brunate.
To pair the fantastic wines of Damilano, Donato will prepare a Piemontese feast and the menu will have the option of adding Alba white truffles to the dishes.
This is our last call this year for all the Barolo lovers out there.
Do not miss this intimate dinner and the opportunity to experience a truly Piemontese evening in Redwood City.

What an honor to host once again Roccolo Grassi founders Francesca and Marco Satori.
Founded in 1996, Roccolo Grassi has established itself as one of the foremost proponents of quality in Valpolicella.
Their wines are modern in style yet “traditional” in both their flavor and character. Exclusively focused on Soave, Valpolicella and Amarone; the wines are unmistakably some of the finest examples of these appellations and are not to be missed.
For wine lovers who appreciate full-bodied richly flavored wines with plenty of aging potential Roccolo Grassi will not disappoint.
Their Amarone is and continues to be one of the most balanced Amarones ever made in our humble opinion.
Join us for a memorable dinner with Roccolo Grassi and Donato's Venetian menu.
