Raise a glass (or a few) to the arrival of fall at Capo’s Italian wine dinner. Chef Tony Susi is giving guests a glance at the autumnal menu on the first day of the season – Thursday, September 22nd. The menu – with plates like squash agnolotti and potato gnocchi with braised rabbit – will be matched by wines selected by beverage director Kevin Mabry from the Banville Wine Merchants portfolio. Winemaker Lia Tolaini-Banville will be on-hand for the 6:30pm dinner at the Southie spot. Tickets, inclusive of food and wine, are available for $100 each online here. Call Capo at 617.993.8080 for more information.
