Nothing says Natale to an Italian family more than the annual appearance of Panettone. A delicious, sweet bread studded with raisins and citron and a hint of vanilla, it is traditionally served after the Christmas meal along with a glass of dessert wine (we highly recommend 2006 Maculan Dindarello Veneto Moscato, $21.99). At Giacomo's we're pleased to offer two amazing versions from the Abruzzo region by Rustichella d'Abruzzo, already well-known throughout the globe for their artisanal pastas. Their cherry panettone, elegantly presented in red holiday wrap is one of the best panettones I've ever had, here or in Italy! Delicious black cherries are studded throughout this new twist on a classic holiday cake. A wonderful addition to your holiday feast this year.($27)
