Musso & Frank Grill, opened in 1919, is the oldest restaurant in Hollywood and a timeless icon. Still family-run today, it enhances its culinary tradition with a refined selection of Franciacorta wines by Castello Bonomi.<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

How would you define the connection between food and wine?<\/b>

\nThe connection is essential<\/b>. Without wine, food would lack an intelligent and articulate counterpart\u2014one that can respond and engage on the same level. Of course, a meal can exist without wine, but the dialogue between food and water is far more monotonous and uninspiring.\n

Is offering Italian sparkling wines an added value for your restaurant? How are they perceived by your guests?<\/strong><\/p>\nItalian sparkling wines<\/b> are a source of pride for us, for a couple of reasons. First, we are in the United States, and as a restaurant with strong Italian roots<\/b>, serving sparkling wines from other countries would not truly represent who we are. Secondly, Italy\u2019s DOC sparkling wines express outstanding quality<\/b> and deserve to be promoted on a global stage.<\/b><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Castello Bonomi Franciacorta?<\/strong><\/p>

Balance<\/b>, freshness<\/b>, and elegance<\/b>\u2014an expression of harmony where structure meets finesse, revealing a vibrant character that is both refined and deeply connected to its origin<\/b>.<\/p>

Why choose our Franciacorta?<\/strong><\/p>

My restaurants have always had a strong focus on Italian sparkling wines, but I felt the need to find a Franciacorta<\/b> that could truly express both quality and character<\/b>: a sparkling wine that is complex yet never challenging, fragrant<\/b>, fresh<\/b>, deeply rooted<\/b> in its territory, and in perfect harmony with our menu<\/b>. During this search, I relied on the advice of my importer, Franco Wine Import, who introduced me to several samples. Among them, Castello Bonomi Franciacorta Cuv\u00e9e 22<\/b> immediately stood out\u2014it was exactly what I had been looking for. We added it to our wine list, and the response was immediate. Today, other venues in the area have also chosen to feature it, confirming the strength and authenticity of this choice.<\/p>
