Wine Dinner with Nicola Biscardo was Magical!

Italian Wine Dinner – Smashing Success

To talk and listen to our host mr. Nicola Biscardo from Verona reminded me so very much of living life in Italy.  We talked about the most beautiful place in the world for skiiing, Madonna di Campiglio

and we talked about Verona and the restaurants and talked about his incredible wines and our food that together was magical.

I do hope that you may join us soon at one of our Wine Dinners at Isabella’s.  The next one is November 12th.  By the way you may also find his incredible wines at Corner Wines in Plano.

warmest regards,

Kenyon

NICOLA BISCARDO 

I was borne in Verona on January 12th, 1972 in a family of wine makers. Raised in the land of Amarone I took my first wine class at the age of nineteen while I was studying Political Science at the college. It did not take me long to realize that my way was to continue in the family business of selling wine, so I switched to wine studies and I attended the master at the Italian Association of the Guild of Sommeliers. Now I am a professional Wine Taster, a Sommelier, a member of The Society of Wine Educators and not a politician. I moved to United States in 1997 and I lived in New York to market and organize the distribution of Conexport, a private consortium that represent some of the best small producers from different wine regions of Italy. 
Now I am back home in Verona, the city of “Romeo and Juliet” to spoil my vineyards and olive trees with my love and passion!!!
“Alla Salute….!!!”
