Terralina Wine & Small Plates Pairing
On Thursday, December 18th, at 5:00 PM, Terralina Crafted Italian is hosting a Wine & Small Plates Pairing that’s ideal for anyone who wants a more social, bite-sized tasting experience. Your ticket includes a lineup of specialty small plates expertly paired with wines from the restaurant’s in-house sommelier. You’ll enjoy crispy arancini di riso with Le Contesse Sparkling Brut Rosé from Piemonte, artichoke and olive tapenade tartine with Riva de la Rosa Vermentino from Toscana, mini cacio e pepe tagliatelle nests with Prunotto Barbera D’Asti from Piemonte, and a mini traditional pistachio cannoli paired with Saracco Moscato D’Asti.

Disney Springs is always buzzing this time of year, and any stroll through the crowds can feel like an event in itself. But carving out a couple of hours for one of these tasting experiences gives you something that feels uniquely your Disney Springs moment: a night of thoughtful flavors and memorable sips in the middle of the holiday hustle. Whether you’re diving into a refined multi-course wine dinner or sampling small plates with perfectly matched wines, these events bring a bit of calm and delight to even the busiest week downtown.
