NYC L'Antica Pizzeria x La Spinetta Food and Wine Pairing Dinner

Welcome to L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele Food Tasting and Wine Pairing Dinner!

Come join us at L'Antica Pizzeria Da Michele NYC! We are thrilled to welcome Giorgio Rivetti, esteemed owner and winemaker of Contratto and La Spinetta, to join us for an exclusive dinner in our private dining room. Giorgio will guide you through a five-course pairing, perfectly matched with seasonal dishes from L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele.

At the age of 16, Giorgio began studying viticulture and enology at the renowned Scuola Enologica di Alba, one of Italy’s oldest wine schools. He then honed his craft through apprenticeships in Burgundy and Bordeaux. Upon returning to his family’s estate in Piedmont, Giorgio joined his father, Giuseppe, who founded La Spinetta in 1977 and quickly gained recognition for his Moscato d’Asti.

Giorgio crafts wines that are both accessible and age-worthy, consistently impressing critics and wine lovers with their lushness, depth, aromatic complexity, and extraordinary length. His rapid rise, from producing Moscato in the 1970s to becoming a celebrated Barbaresco and Barolo vigneron, is a testament to his success.

La Spinetta is now one of Italy's most celebrated wineries, having earned the prestigious Gambero Rosso "Tre Bicchieri" award for more than 30 of their wines during its relatively short history.
