Vancouver, BC | The famed wines of Tuscany take centre stage on the longest day of the year when Cibo Trattoria General Manager and Wine Director Mark Taylor plays host to a four-course Chianti Dinner at the downtown dining room on Wednesday, June 21 at 6:30 p.m.

The event will pair a rustic four-course Italian-inspired feast from Chef Josh Gonneau with an array of Chianti and an overview of the region, terroir and its wines courtesy of Taylor. A limited number of seats for the Chianti Dinner are available for $89 per person plus taxes and gratuity.

“We invite our guests to raise a glass to the longest day of the year while taking part in an informal, casual dinner where they can savour a true taste of Tuscany and make the varietals it produces more accessible and approachable,” says Taylor.

An ideal guide for this tour of Tuscany, Taylor is a respected and award-winning sommelier who has collected numerous Italian stamps on his passport and is a member of the Board of Directors of the BC Chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers, a judge of the annual Vancouver Magazine International Wine Competition and a member of the Winery Selection Committee of the Vancouver International Wine Festival.
