Solaire Resort Entertainment City presents The Banfi Wine Dinner happening on January 25, 2024. Get a taste of authentic Tuscan cuisine with a six-course dinner paired with Banfi premium blends.

Hailing from Italy’s Tuscany region, Banfi prides itself on its rich winemaking heritage. Each glass

of wine tells a story of both tradition and innovation, authenticity, and elegance.

Finestra’s Executive Chef Andrea Spagoni curates a premium menu where the rich and traditional flavors of Tuscan cuisine are perfectly paired with indulgent wine varieties of Banfi to create a dining experience that will bring your senses to new and exciting heights.

Begin the degustation with Panzanella, a Tuscan bread salad comprised of tomato, scallops, and burrata—a perfect pair for a citrusy white blend Chardonnay, like the 2021 Centine Bianco. Course two is Cacciucco, a rich and flavorful seafood stew with pan-fried prawns paired with a fresh and fruity red wine, the 2020 Rosso di Montalcino ‘Poggio alle Mura’. Indulge in course three, Ribollita, an Italian classic vegetable stew with cannellini beans and slow-cooked kurobuta pork expertly matched with the 2019 Cum Laude ‘Super Tuscan’ which has an aroma of dark cherries and a taste of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of oak.

Moving on to course four, a ricotta based Gnudi with pecorino gnocchi, mushrooms, and black winter truffle awakens your palate. This pairs with a good Cabernet Sauvignon like the 2018 Summus, ‘Super Tuscan ‘.  

Save space for course five, the Bistecca alla Fiorentina, an impressive dish of Porterhouse steak with artichokes and potato. A good choice of wine is paired with it—the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino, which has a smooth and well-balanced taste of red fruits, spice, and a hint of vanilla which lingers long after the last sip.

End the course sweetly with Pinolata, a delicious pine nut cake with saffron ice cream and dark chocolate paired with the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino ‘Poggio alle Mura’, an intense, elegant, and balanced red wine with a sweet and fruity taste of red berry jam.
