A collection of his columns is included in “The New York Times Book of Wine,’’ published by Sterling Epicure. During dinner, travel to the multi-faceted wine region of Chianti Classico. From his recent article in The Times “This Tuscan wine is a gorgeous expression of Sangiovese “I find a lightness, purity, and eloquence to the wines that in my mind, sets them apart…” Enjoy 8 different wines paired perfectly with a four-course menu created by Boston Harbor’s Executive Chef, David Daniels.
