The NJ Chapter is excited to have DKR Imports presenting their wines of Umbria and Tuscany while we dine on a fabulous meal specially prepared at Il Castello Restaurant. The wines are produced by the Gritti family (famous for the beautiful Gritti Palace hotel in Venice.) Their wines are made to reflect the specific terroir of Umbria.

 

This is a night not to be missed.
