A Night in Calabria

An evening of candlelight, Italian wine, and Southern Italian romance.

 

Friday, February 13, 2026
Evening begins at 6pm
Crystal Room – Historic Ashland Springs Hotel

 
This Valentine’s season, the Crystal Room transforms for A Night in Calabria—an elegant four-course wine dinner inspired by the rich flavors and timeless traditions of Italy’s southern coast. Begin with a celebratory glass of bubbles, then savor thoughtfully paired Italian wines alongside delicate seafood, house-made pasta, slow-braised lamb ragu, and a decadent tiramisu finale.
 
A night of indulgence, warmth, and connection—perfectly paired.
