The dinner will be four-courses with different wine with each  
course.  The menu will not be finalized for a week or so as our chef,  
Marco Frattaroli, wants to wait to see what fresh game will be  
available to go with the Amarone we intend to serve.  The provisional  
wine list follows.

Welcome wine:
2005 MASIANCO – this is a blend of PINOT GRIGIO and a local grape  
VERDUZZO.

First Course:
2003 CAMPOFIORIN RIPASSO – MASI invented the RIPASSO style of  
VALPOLICELLA.

Second Course:
2001 BROLO di CAMPOFIORIN – this is MASI’s Reserve Valpolicella-style  
wine with grapes coming from the original walled vineyards in  
Valgatara di Marano that is in the heart of the Valpolicella Classico  
zone.

Third Course:
2001 COSTASERA AMARONE CLASSICO and 1995 AMARONE CLASSICO – this will  
be a wonderful opportunity to compare a young Amarone with one over  
10 years of age.

Fourth Course:
2000 RECIOTO CASAL dei RONCHI SEREGO ALIGHERI – this is the sweet  
version of Amarone.

During the evening you will be able to order any MASI wines at 15%  
discount on single bottles, 20% discount off mixed/full cases.  This  
offer is based on pre-payment by credit card or cash, and for pick-up  
at Cornell Wine Company.

This is going to be a wonderful evening,

Cheers,

Mick
