Last month I hosted an evening of wines from the Nemea region of Greece. The wines were all from Nemea and they will be poured by Kolonaki Group.

Specialty Greek ingredients and olive oil from Nisos Importing.

The menu was inspired by my travels to Nemea, the local products and the dishes were chosen to pair well with these tremendous wines.

Join me on Sunday, December 9th at St. Lawrence Market Kitchen (Toronto) for a Taste of Nemea!
