California’s Russian River Valley came to Hyannis’s Main Street recently when Longboard Vineyards and Alberto’s Ristorante paired a selection of fine wines with classic Northern Italian cuisine for a spring wine tasting dinner.
Winemaker Oded Shakked made his first trip to Cape Cod to share a lifelong passion for great wine with a few dozen happy guests who gathered to soak in the warm ambiance of Alberto’s, given a special sparkle with exquisite wines from California. Oded immediately set the diners at ease with his humor and his obvious love for superb wines.
