Our kick-off to the Christmas Season will be a fine wine dinner under the direction of our host and owner Steve Salari at Coco Lezzone in the heart of Toronto’s Little Italy. We will experience Mediterranean culture and style with a special menu created for the Australian Wine Society members and guests.
Located on trendy College Street in the heart of little Italy, Coco Lezzone is simply perfect for sharing wine, stories and food with family and friends. The atmosphere is lively and always full of excitement, especially on the weekends. The staff are attentive, friendly and exceptionally professional. The menu is bountiful and full of flavour, all to match the Aussie wines for the evening. Steve has created the menu, and John Macdonald has selected the wines to go with each course.

The Australian Wine Society (AWS) of Toronto is a not-for-profit organization devoted to the enjoyment of the wines of Australia. Through exposure to, and education about the wines and wine regions of Australia, the Society seeks to encourage, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, a greater awareness of the wine varietals, the diversity and the styles of Aussie wines. The opportunity to try a wide range of wines makes it easier for members to decide what types they might want to purchase through wine agents, the LCBO, Vintages monthly releases and the Classics Catalogue.
