An Italian Showcase! "Brunello, Barbaresco & Sunday Sauce" Dinner @ Turtle + the Wolf
Tuesday January 14, 2025 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
That’s right, wine dinner fans…OUR FIRST EVENT of 2025 is SET! Join us for an old-school New Jersey dinner – “Brunello, Barbaresco & Sunday Sauce” @ Turtle + the Wolf! Let's kick off "Dry Wine January" in-style..
ONLY 56 SEATS AVAILABLE! FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED!
WE’RE BACK! If there’s one thing that everyone in NJ can agree on, it’s that we all love “Sunday Sauce” – or Sunday “Gravy” -- or Sugo! Whether you are making it, eating it -- or both -- when the weather drops, the sauce pans come out. As we all know, nothing beats the smell -- and taste -- of the hours-long simmer of a good tomato sauce. Especially when Chef Lo is the one making it! And with that sentiment in mind, I am excited to invite you to join us on Tuesday, January 14 @ 7PM @ Turtle + the Wolf for our first ever "Sunday Sauce" wine pairing dinner! We make “Sunday Sauce” all the time and when we told Chef Lo’ about this idea a month ago, he couldn’t wait to get it on the calendar…and we cannot wait to try his sauce, meatballs, sausage and more! I am sure many of you reading this email make your own version…but can you imagine how good Lauren’s sauce is going to be?!
We will be showcasing some of our favorite Italian wines in the shop – including some fantastic Brunello & Barbaresco -- with this classic Italian-American supper.
