Bella Venezia: The Radio Show!

Posted on

Our 21st Year of Eating, Drinking and Telling You About It!

HOUSTON Saturdays and Sunday 4-5 p.m., NewsRadio 740 KTRH

A Presentation of Spec’s Wines, Spirits & Finer Foods

In so many ways, all of them good, this week’s show is a trip down memory lane. Nearly 40 years after first watching the city of Venice rise from the Adriatic, we return for a more mature look and taste. As for cuisine, we settle in for a multi-course waterfront tasting with the executive chef of the classically elegant Bauer Hotel. And for drink, we join the hotel’s owner, Francesca Bortolotto Possati (we love saying her name), for a tasting of wines from her estate in Friuli, Colmello di Grotta.
