Win Luxurious Prizes, Including Round-Trip Airfare and Hotel Stays
Franciacorta, a sparkling wine produced through traditional bottle fermentation, hails from the hilly region of Franciacorta, near Milan in Italy's Lombardy region. Certified as Italy's highest designation, DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita), it is cherished worldwide, especially by Milanese who value its quality.
In Japan, the Franciacorta Association was established last year, and on November 13th, a reception party celebrating its first anniversary was held at the Italian Ambassador's residence. Many distinguished guests attended, fostering Italian-Japanese exchange over 25 varieties of wine.
This special event, "Italian Senses - Eat, Drink and Travel," where you can savor Franciacorta wine with authentic Italian cuisine, will be held at "Piacere" in Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo.
In addition to a one-night-only gala dinner featuring a performance by an opera singer, special set menus and à la carte options will be available for a limited three-day lunch and dinner.
Furthermore, don't miss the chance to win luxurious prizes through a lottery, including round-trip business class tickets to Milan from Alitalia, magnum bottles of Franciacorta wine, and accommodation and dining vouchers for Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo.
This is truly an Italian-themed special event; why not get into the early Christmas spirit?
