[title]There’s a little saying in Italian that goes: ‘la dolce vita’. It needs no explanation, nor translation – if you ask us, one of the best ways to live the sweet life is sipping on some bubbly. This spring, you might score tickets to the MotoGP VipVillage™ on Phillip Island for doing just that.
Nine Melbourne venues are teaming up with Prosecco DOC wineries from Italy for ‘La Dolce Vita – Italian Weeks’ to offer certifiably delicious cocktails from September 20 to October 4. What’s the ‘DOC’ part, you may be asking? A Prosecco can only really be called as such if it’s ground and produced in designated regions in Italy. This spans from the gorgeous mountains of the Dolomites all the way to the lagoons of Venice.
So where should you add to your hitlist?
- Fitzroy’s fresh fine diner RST Seafood Restaurant is teaming up with Prosecco DOC winery Villa Jolanda of Santero;
- Friendly neighbourhood diner Al Dente Enoteca in Carlton is pairing its famous housemade pasta with glasses from La Gioiosa;
- Nearby vibrant retro diner Ms Frankie Carlton is sharing the love with Val D’Oca;
- Albert Park’s fluffy crust pizza gods Italian Artisans are joining forces with Salatin;
- There’s charming Malvern eatery Made in Casa serving up the goods from Tenuta Sant’Anna;
- The high quality plant-based Funghi e Tartufo bringing some Villa Sandi to the CBD;
- Grill Steak Seafood also cooking up a storm in the CBD with La Delizia;
- East Melbourne’s Roccella pairing their sourdough and gluten free pizzas with glasses from Mionetto;
- Roccella in Bundoora is pairing its modern Italian dishes with Perlino Prosecco DOC and;
- The authentic Geppetto Trattoria in East Melbourne pairing its homestyle Italian dining with Le Contesse Prosecco DOC Treviso Brut.
Look forward to all things Prosecco DOC, from Treviso Brut to Extra Dry, mixed by expert bartenders into cocktails with a touch of fizz. If you hit up at least three of the venues, sample their drink del giorno, and scan the barcode, you’ll be in the running for a double pass to the MotoGP VipVillage™ at Phillip Island.
The high-octane affair is going down from October 17 to 19 and if you’re a lucky winner, you’ll get to enjoy pit-lane walks, paddock tours, garage visits, informal rider meet-and-greets, and more. Not lucky enough to score first prize? Second place still gets some exclusive La Dolce Vita tote bags and t-shirts to commemorate the affair.
The more venues you explore, the better your chances are. Take part in Prosecco DOC’s sip and win competition from September 20 to October 4 across Melbourne. Find out more about Prosecco DOC here.
