Scarpetta: Latin American Wine Dinner

  • Old Vines Supper Club Naples 2795 Davis Blvd Suite I Naples, FL 34104 Naples, FL, 34108 United States (map)

In Italy, scarpetta means sopping up all the sauce left on your plate (or in the pot) with bread. The literal meaning of the term is “little shoe,” which comes from the fact that a shoe, just like the bread on the plate, drags up what’s on the ground. Another theory says that the term scarpetta comes from the dialect word scarsetta, which means scarcity: a condition that obliged the poorer classes to get as much nourishment as possible from a dish, not wasting even a trace of leftover sauce.

On December 11th, we continue our Scarpetta wine dinner series with a four-course Latin American themed tasting menu, hosted by Chef Sophia and Wine Director Zach. From snapper ceviche with a zesty twist to tender braised short rib with mole, each dish showcases inspired ingredients and global flair.

$125 per person, excluding tax and gratuity.
Reservations required.
