Aperitivo Italiano – Un Viaggio in Sicilia

July 27, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Ready to join us for happy hour ?

What is the meaning of “Aperitivo Italiano”? An aperitivo (or apéritif) is often described as being similar to the American happy hour, but in reality, it’s much more than that. An Aperitivo is joyous and mood-lifting, it relaxes you after a day of work or prepares you for the night to come. Aperitivo, with its cheerful yet elegant nature, is a staple in Italy and has been getting more and more appreciated around the world.

Join us on Wednesday, July 27, 2022 at the Milford House to taste four great Italian wines from Sicily accompanied by Italian style small bites.

About the presenter:
