Tuffoli Pasta with Braised Oxtail on a Castemagno Fundue

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]“On November 16, 1992, an arson fire destroyed the collection of fine spirits of the Enoteca Pinchiorri in Florence. Century-old Armagnac and Bas-Armagnac were lost. For me, it was a time to mourn equal in loss to the destruction of a painting by Gherardo delle Notti at the nearby Uffizi in a terrorist attack the following May. Pinchiorri paid dearly for the conquest of the third Michelin star given to him a few days earlier. (He would lose it and then got it back again continuously from 2004, the only instance outside of France). I have known Giorgio and Annie Feolde, queen of his kitchen, for over thirty years. Going to dinner at their place is an event, also, and above all, for the pairings with fantastic wines. Elegance equal to quality: out of the ordinary. When I started producing wine, Giorgio was the first to encourage me, even on the less expensive wines. Seeing Annie’s dishes paired with our best products is an understandable emotion.”
