This week Ann and I joined a small group at the upstairs dining room at Mucca to learn about Italian wines from the region of Piemonte from the winemaker, Orlando Pecchenino.
Accompanying the wine was a five course dinner that featured sea scallops, charcuterie, rigatoni with venison, port glazed sous vide pork cheeks and semifreddo for dessert. The highlight of the evening was a 2015 Barolo San Giuseppe.
If you are planning a visit to Portland, Ann and I highly recommend dining at Mucca. It is an exceptional restaurant with chef-owner Simone Savaiano at the helm. Once inside, you'll likely think that you're at a plaza in Rome or a small cafe in Venice.
