Winemaker Dinner with Martin Foradori of J. Hofstätter

Wednesday, 27 July, 7:30 PM

Nostrana celebrates the kickoff of this year’s International Pinot Noir Celebration by welcoming Martin Foradori of J. Hofstätter from Northern Italy’s Alto Adige. 

Founded by Joseph Hofstätter a century ago, the estate comprises extensive vineyards with five historic manor houses located on either sides of the Adige Valley. Today, Joseph’s grand nephew, Martin Foradori-Hofstätter passionately maintains a delicate balance between tradition and innovation, producing wines of exceptional character and typicity.

Chef Cathy Whims presents a menu of Northern Italian favorites to complement Martin’s elegant Pinot noir, Lagrein and Pinot grigio.

Planned for the evening’s menu are: • Fricco & fava bean salad • Canederli with peas • Risotto of blueberries and summer chanterelles • Rabbit with bacon and mustard, potato pancake • Cherry strudel
