Chamber Night at
VinoVero
Wednesday, August 16, 5:30-7pm
| |
Join us for our August Networking Mixer at VinoVero, our newest wine bar in Los Gatos! Enjoy a tailored selection of fine Italian, European and local wines and shared plates made with fresh local and Italian ingredients.
VinoVero was born from the passion and worldwide food and wine experience of Michele Bevilacqua. Native Venetian, Michele's idea is to take you to a typical Venetian "Bacar", a cozy wine bar where people meet for chatting, drinking and eating the classic Venetian "cicheto" (finger food). "Mani in Pasta" (hands in the dough) and "Fatto in Casa" (homemade) are his mottos.
Wine, beer & small bites.
