One wine for the entire evening: Champagne, a tribute to the Maisons and Vignerons who have become icons of style, pleasure, and elegance.

OUR PARTNERS

MOËT&CHANDON
It all began with Claude Moët’s intuition, determined to elevate a prestigious yet lesser-known regional wine into the beverage of choice for monarchs, cosmopolitans, and courtiers across Europe, including Napoleon Bonaparte and the Marquise de Pompadour, the lover of King Louis XIV. His nephew, Jean-Rémy Moët, quickly turned Moët & Chandon into an international symbol of celebration. The Maison is associated with emblematic gestures such as the art of sabrage, the ritual of ship christenings, and the champagne showers to commemorate sporting victories.

MAISON GALLIMARD
Located in the village of Riceys, in the heart of the Côte des Bar, the Gallimard estate has been passed down from father to son for 6 generations. Today, Didier and Arnaud produce Champagne and Rosé des Riceys in the purest tradition, respecting and enhancing the characteristics of this unique terroir in southern Champagne. An invitation to pleasure, sharing, and the discovery of a land capable of expressing a strong identity in its wines.

MAISON JEAN JIMONNET
Located in the heart of the vineyards of the Côte des Blancs since 1826, Maison Jean Gimonnet is deeply rooted in Champagne’s heritage. For over three centuries, the Gimonnet family has passionately cultivated their vines in this Champagne village, producing all their vintages on the estate. The grapes primarily come from a Premier Cru classified terroir, meticulously tended with utmost care and environmental respect.

History of the review

The project, born from the desire of Luigi Cremona to stimulate a discussion in the kitchen and offer, at the same time, customers a new experience, has seen 56 starred chefs from Italy and the rest of the world parade through Indaco’s kitchens, to offer their testimonials of a high interpretation and quality in signature cuisine. A long journey through the regions of Italy and the different continents that has stimulated Pasquale Palamaro’s creativity and enriched his cuisine in continuous evolution, until reaching maturity with the awareness of being, and wanting to be, a great interpreter of the sea.

““For this year’s Summer Dinner series, which will be held at our Indaco restaurant, I decided to bring my love for the sea to the table and create a truly unique dining experience for our guests. Years ago I chose to return to Ischia, and become a “chef of the sea.” As the sea is an inexhaustible source for raw materials, I’m able to constantly experiment and create new unique flavors thanks to the rich abundance of ingredients right outside our kitchen.””.
