When Tuscany goes to Alta Badia

Written by Gianni Mercatali - Published on 15/02/2012
bacchus1mThe seventh edition of the Chef’s Cup has taken place in Alta Badia. A sporting, good food and lifestyle event, which gathered the leading names in top national and international cuisine as well as fine Tuscan wines.

The stars of the show were the chefs from the restaurants making up the DoloMitici [Dolo-Myths] trio: Norbert Niederkofler from the two Michelin-star restaurant St. Hubertus, Fabio Cucchelli from the one Michelin-star restaurant La Siriola and Arturo Spicocchi of the one Michelin-star restaurant La Stüa de Michil, who played hosts to friends and colleagues.

Skiing competitions on the Gran Risa, the famous World Cup piste, followed by sublime food and wine moments with great emphasis placed on the excellence of the ingredients.

The wines from the Cecchi cellar took centre stage throughout these lunches. "An unmissable event,” says Andrea Cecchi, an avid skier, “an opportunity to welcome many friends, whose faces, portrayed by Maestro Ferdinando Cioffi, are the stars in the photography book that we’ve published: We love Coevo.”

This book by Cecchi was a kind of preview of the Tuscan wines, which will soon be presented at Stazione Leopolda in Florence.
