Join us for a very special evening of Alpine wines and communal dining with Renate Seeber of Alto Adige's famed Kuenhof estate. Kuenhof, run by Peter and Brigitte Pliger, is one of Italy’s top white wine producers. Their vineyards, perched on steep, rocky slopes in the Val d’Isarco (Eisacktal) region of South Tyrol, are just a short drive from the Austrian border. The Pligers grow Sylvaner, Veltliner, and Riesling using organic and biodynamic methods, creating wines with a vibrant, stony character. These wines truly stand out — full of personality, shaped by a special place, careful farming, and skilled winemaking. For this event, we are very lucky to Renata here to walk us through the full lineup from the two latest vintages side by side (that's 6 wines!).
Lean, lively, and mineral-driven, Kuenhof's wines are amazing with all sorts of food pairings, but we'll be leaning into their Alpine origins with a full raclette dinner. Swiss in origin, raclette is the ultimate mountain wine complement, from Mont Blanc to the Dolomites, a choose-your-own adventure, table-top-prepared smorgasbord of salty charcuterie, melted cheese, and potatoes, with lots of accoutrements. The emphasis in raclette dining is on relaxed and sociable eating and drinking, so we're bringing the coziness and camaraderie of your own chalet to Green Street!
