  • Eleonora Fenocchio Winemaker Dinner

    US$200.00 per person

    Prepaid

    Mar 13, 2025 only
    6:00 p.m.
    On Thursday, March 13th at 6pm, we are honored to host Eleonora Fenocchio of the legendary Giacomo Fenocchio estate in Barolo for an intimate dinner at Arden. This is a rare opportunity to experience a selection of their cru Barolos—wines that exemplify the historic power and elegance of Piedmont—alongside a very special skin-contact wine that has never been available in the Portland market before. For over 150 years, the Fenocchio family has remained steadfast in their commitment to traditional Barolo winemaking—long fermentations, extended macerations, and aging exclusively in large Slavonian-oak casks. Their wines are known for their purity, elegance, and an unmistakable expression of terroir. At this dinner, we’ll be pouring two of their Bussia Cru's side by side—an extraordinary opportunity to explore the nuances of one of Barolo’s most historic and renowned sites. Nestled in a natural amphitheater, Bussia offers ideal sun exposure and complex calcareous-clay soils that create wines of power and finesse. We will end the night with a special library pour of Bussia to see how these outstanding wines age. In addition to their world-class reds, the Fenocchio estate has begun producing tiny amounts of an orange wine made from Arneis, called Anima Arancio. This wine, fermented on its skins for 30 days and aged in amphora, is a textural, aromatic marvel—one that barely leaves Italy. We’re thrilled to be able to pour it at this dinner. This is an evening for lovers of Barolo, of course—but also for anyone who appreciates wines with history, integrity, and a true sense of place. Join us at the table. Tickets are limited—reserve your seat now! Ticket price includes service charge.
