Isole e Olena Wine Dinner

A dinner featuring Isole e Olena wines paired with a multi-course menu.

Isole e Olena is a renowned Tuscan winery in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, celebrated for its commitment to elegance, balance, and terroir-driven wines. Founded in the 1950s and brought to international prominence under the stewardship of Paolo de Marchi, the estate played a pivotal role in redefining the potential of Sangiovese. Its high-elevation vineyards and diverse soils yield wines of freshness, structure, and exceptional aging potential. Isole e Olena is best known for its Chianti Classico and the iconic Cepparello, widely regarded as a benchmark expression of the grape.

We are honored to welcome Kyle Kaplan of Folio Fine Wine Partners to La Connessa for an evening of storytelling and wine. Our culinary team has crafted a multi-course menu designed to highlight the depth, elegance, and character of these exceptional wines. A truly special night—and one not to be missed.
