Maison de Vert, an exquisite culinary event hosted at the concept store Locale in Kingston, Jamaica, transformed into an olive-themed oasis curated by Aiesha Panton for Pussbackfoot. The evening commenced with a prosecco reception, setting the stage for an eight-course, wine-paired meal meticulously crafted by Chef Jerron Green. The menu was designed to highlight the exceptional wines from Fantinel, one of Italy’s most renowned wineries, featuring their One & Only Prosecco, Rosé Brut, Sant’Helena Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Venko Collio Rosso, and the exquisite La Roncaia Refosco, a Friulian wine made from the finest Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso grapes. Flavio Andreatta, Giowine’s brand manager and Fantinel’s representative in the Caribbean, hosted the event, sharing his two-decade-long passion for Italian wines and Caribbean culture. The evening was a symphony of flavors, with each course thoughtfully paired with Fantinel’s wines. Highlights included the Scotch Bonnet Watermelon Gazpacho paired with One & Only Rosé Brut, the Green Pea Soup with Butter Poached Shrimp complemented by Sauvignon Blanc, and the Pan-Seared Duck Breast accompanied by La Roncaia Friulano. The grand finale featured Jamaican Rum Cake & Poached Pear, perfectly paired with Fantinel Prosecco. The event, attended by nearly 40 patrons, was a testament to the artistry of Chef Green and the legacy of Fantinel wines. Guests eagerly anticipate the next culinary journey with this dynamic duo.
