Start your gastronomic journey off by heading to the historic Boston neighborhood of North End--an Italian neighborhood characterized by cobblestone streets and known as Boston's oldest neighborhood thanks to early settlers who inhabited the region in the mid-17th century. Enter the Rigoletto Ristorante to enjoy a private setting with up to twelve guests as your wine ambassador shares Italian wine pairing tips for the likes of award-winning wines like the Cantina Santa Maria Palma Aragosta wine from the Vermentino de Sardegna region in Sardinia. You'll also get to enjoy a little bubbly wine sampling of the youthful tastes of Da Lucca Prosecco wine--a sparkling wine option from the Prosecco region of Veneto, which pairs delightfully with Prosciutto.

Delight in Italian-style pizza known as Quattro Formaggio flatbread, where you'll enjoy the savory flavors from cheese like mozzarella, ricotta, fontina, and gorgonzola cheese. Pair this yummy pizza with delicious rare white grape notes of Planeta La Segreta, which hails from Sicily--a region that's been making wine since 4,000 B.C. and also has been influenced by Ancient Greek viticulture techniques. Enjoy sampling Tuscan wine like Rocca Delle Macie Chianti Classico as you pair it with a balsamic vinaigrette-infused local green salad before heading back to your pier.
