Barbaresco Feature at Bar Bambino March 21-26, 2011

Produttori del Barbaresco Springtime Feature at Bar Bambino

"With a wine program that focuses on the wines of northern Italy and Central Europe and showcases traditional producers working primarily with indigenous varieties, we enjoy introducing guests to unfamiliar varieties and traditional production methods," said Christopher Losa.   He decided that making Produttori del Barbaresco's sought-after wines more accessible from a price perspective was a great way to usher in Spring and to showcase the collaboration between Collin's palette and Lizzie's cooking.
