You know the fiasco—that teardrop-shaped bottle wrapped in straw that once symbolized less-than-excellent Chianti served in less-than-excellent red-sauce restaurants. Chianti, the hilly wine region around Florence, is actually the home to stunning viticulture that dates back to the pre-Roman Etruscans. From Tarry Lodge’s site: “Join us… for a four-course tasting menu paired with current and library releases from the illustrious Chianti Classico producer Fattoria di Felsina. Awarded seventeen Tre Bicchieri awards from Gambero Rosso, Fèlsina produces one of the finest ranges of age-worthy and complex Chianti bottlings in all of Italy. A representative from the winery will be here to speak about these classic, masterful wines.” Call (914) 939-3111 for reservations
