10th Anniversary Celebration of the Pèppoli at Pebble Beach
Ciao Amici (hello friends),
We are excited to announce the arrival of Marchese Piero Antinori, our partner at Pèppoli at Pebble Beach. Piero, legendary ambassador of Italian wines will be here visiting from his home in Florence, Italy and will be here to help celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Pèppoli Restaurant. While this is certainly just a fraction of the over 600-year history of the Antinori family wine empire, we are all very proud of this accomplishment. Piero will be joined by his renowned chef Cinzia Nenci, from the Antinori estate of Fonte de Medici.
Three wonderful events are planned and we hope you can join us to savor the cuisine and wines of Tuscany, meet Piero Antinori, one of the most influential figures of Italian winemaking, and enjoy the Tuscan-inspired ambience at Pèppoli (see details below).
