Five-Course Pairing Experience Brings Together Italian Wines, Signature Dishes, and an Evening Inspired by the Restaurant’s Immersive Under the Sea Theme

This summer, Amore e Amore is inviting guests to dive a little deeper. As part of its whimsical Under the Sea experience, the beloved Inman Park restaurant will host a one-night-only Ruffino Wine Dinner on Thursday, August 6, at 7 p.m., pairing celebrated Italian wines with a thoughtfully curated five-course menu that highlights some of the restaurant’s most beloved dishes. Throughout the evening, Caterina Velez, Ruffino Ambassador for the U.S., will guide guests through each pairing, sharing the history, regions and winemaking traditions behind every selection. 

Guests will be welcomed with a glass of Ruffino Prosecco DOC before beginning the first course, featuring a farm-to-table arugula salad alongside artisanal Italian cheeses, cured meats, house-marinated olives and homemade pesto, paired with Ruffino Orvieto Classico DOC. The evening continues with Amore e Amore’s signature Pappardelle Sinatra, served with Sante Dame Chianti Classico DOCG, followed by a refreshing homemade lemon sorbetto paired with Mi Campo Blanco as an intermezzo between courses. For the entrée, guests will choose between Black Angus Filet Mignon with Vecchia Romagna Brandy or Classic Chicken Piccata, both paired with Riserva Ducale Oro Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG. The evening concludes with a curated assortment of homemade desserts served alongside Modus Primo Toscana IGT, creating a memorable finish to the experience.
