Rimessa Roscioli - Rome, Italy Pt. 5
In this episode, we dive into the vibrant world of Rimessa Roscioli's cooking classes and wine experiences with Lindsay Gabbard. Discover how Rimessa Roscioli offers an approachable and fun way for beginners to master the art of fresh handmade pasta, meatballs, and tiramisu, all paired with exquisite wines.
Lindsay shares that 90% of participants in their cooking classes have never made pasta from scratch before. These classes are designed to be light, easy, and enjoyable, blending hands-on activities with demonstrations. After cooking, participants get to savor their creations alongside expertly paired wines with a sommelier.
The daytime cooking class is one of Rimessa Roscioli’s most popular events, while the nighttime wine tasting dinner offers an equally engaging experience. For serious wine enthusiasts, the "Taste the Legends" tasting event provides an opportunity to sample 10-14 wines paired with different dishes, with varying levels of intensity and price points.
Lindsay also discusses her personal wine preferences, highlighting a private label Cesanese from Lazio made in amphora, which has become her go-to bottle. However, she emphasizes the importance of continuously exploring new wines to avoid palate fatigue.
