A Tuscan dinner with cheesemakers from Podere Il Casale and the Salcheto winery

20 October from 7 pm at Konírna the italians in Smíchov

Do you know why such excellent Tuscan pecorino is produced in the valley of the River Orcia, just below the town of Pienza?

Why does Sangiovese from the hills around Montepulciano have a slightly different character to that from the Chianti region?

Do you know the story of the Swiss punks who moved from Zurich to a farm in Tuscany in the 1980s and now produce some of the finest sheep’s-milk cheeses in the area?

Do you have any idea how many different flavours and textures high-quality sheep’s milk can have?

And why won’t you find any light switches on the walls at the Salcheto winery?

If you know all the answers, hats off to you! And if not, come and discover them with us. We’ll tell you a few stories, cook up something delicious and pour a drink or two. A simple Tuscan-style dinner awaits us at Konírna: superb sheep’s-milk cheeses, lamb and a lovely Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.

A winemaker, a cheesemaker and a Tuscan chef will personally guide you through the entire evening.

When: Tuesday 20 October at 7.00 pm
Where: Konírna the italians Smíchov, Strakonická 948/1
