Fabiano Italian wine and Chef Aurora Stranges seafood dishes made with said vino on a warm summer night. What's not to love?


There’s a new vino on the block hailing from Italy’s Veneto region and these bottles are dressed for the occasion. Fabiano is producing a very accessible white and red that are as easy to take as a fluid conversationalist at a dinner party.

Keeping up with the sure-fire eye catcher wine label trend (think Yellow Jersey or Goats Do Roam for example), and you’ve got the idea of where Fabiano is going with it’s fashion forward labels. One bottle label sports a pair of tailored men’s pinstriped pants while the other a very fashionable fuchsia skirt per donna.

In one of my upcoming pieces, I’ll tell you about how these wines are used in new and notable dishes prepared by Italian Chef Aurora Stranges from Toronto’s own La Vecchia Ristorante. Born and raised in Calabria which is warmed by the Mediterranean waters hugging the coastline, I for one can’t wait to try out her seafood dishes made with the Italian wines. I’m told Chef Aurora cooks with a whole lot of “Amore!” and if the Fabiano wines are made with the same enthusiasm, I’m bound to have an evening redolent of the Amalfi Coast right here in Toronto.

Report and recipes on the evening’s events to follow- don’t miss it!
