La Bettolina, a restaurant located in Gaggiano - 15 km from

Milan, in a little corner of paradise nestled in the greenery of a 16th-century farmhouse, is dedicating the month of February to discovering Italy's most prestigious wine appellations through Bollito e Bollicine, four evenings of tastings that

will tell the story and excellence of our bubbles. The scheduled events are Feb. 4, 11, 18 and 25, 2025, from 8:30 p.m., and each event will have a different wine production area as its theme.

The menu includes Benvenuto della Cascina with homemade pan brioche crostini, whipped liver pate, Clerici beekeeping lime honey and fried sage. For the first course, tortellini in capon broth with crispy parmesan waffles. The second course is the real

starring: boiled meat from La Bettolina served in the dining room, with cotechino, tongue, cappello del prete, capon and biancostato. Accompanying: green sauce, mustard, honey mustard, and shared side dishes. For dessert, small cheese tasting (goat, Vallée, Stravecchio Pedretti and Airoli spicy gorgonzola) and sorbet.

The cost is 60 euros including water, cover charge and three glasses selected by Enoteca Maggiolini, an event partner.

It begins on February 4 with Alta Langa DOCG, a territory that stretches between the provinces of Asti, Alessandria and Cuneo, where in 1865 the F.lli Gancia winery gave birth to Italy's first classic method sparkling wine. During the evening it will be possible to taste Alta Langa DOCG, made exclusively from Pinot noir and/or Chardonnay grapes with a minimum percentage of 90% and aging on the lees for at least 30 months.
