The Women of Wine of Sardinia, an association in which I have held the role of Vice Delegate for a few weeks, has organized a charity evening for March 8th at the evocative location of Il Convento San Giuseppe, at Via Paracelso 16 in Cagliari.
This is an elegant dinner - with a served buffet - featuring international dishes that will celebrate the existing bond with the 10 nations where there are “sister” associations of Le donne del vino.

Among the proposed appetizers we will have the Argentine Empanadas de Tonno, the Georgian Khachapuri, the exquisite Chilean White fish ceviche; followed by the German Currywurst, which consists of tasty spiced sausage and onions. As first courses there will be the Macadamia Pumpkin Soup, an Australian dish, and then the Austrian Spatzle with onions and speck. The classic New Zealand dish Lamb and potatoes and the tasty Mini Hamburgers complete the main courses. The two desserts offered are a Chilean Dulce de leche and the classic French Crêpes suzette, a delicacy loved by everyone. During the dinner, you will be able to taste wines from the associated producers paired with the international dishes.

One of the traits of unity and sharing in the world is food, a fundamental element of life, and for this reason we will combine some international dishes from ten nations of the world with the wines of Sardinia, thus giving a sign of cohesion and brotherhood.
