Istria, its wines and tastes

The second special gathering in Relais Monaco in Ponzano Veneto at the exhibition ''Venice meets Europe'' on 21st May. After a successful evening dominated by the king of the wines of Venice, an unavoidable event entitled ISTRIA, ITS WINES AND TASTES will take place. Istria is close, especially to Venice, due to which it became a part of the Venetian Republic – the Venetian started conquering a big part of Istria as early as 12th century –  marking its dishes by homemade gastronomic tastes of the Venetian lagoon. The evening begins at 19.30 with a musical dedication to the Venetian Republic performed by ''La Tavola Armonica'', a 20 element band which combines old Venetian songs with recitals.

It won't be hard to feel as if being in Istria thanks to the menu created by the host chef,  Mimmo Salerno, in collaboration with the renown Istrian caterer, Dušan Černjula, chef at the Vela Nera restaurant in Pula and a special participation by Sandi Paris, four-time Croatian sommelier champion, who will present a prestigious selection of Istrian wines from the Roxanich wine cellar.
