RAMÓN & LUCÍA

NARRATIVE MUSIC PERFORMANCE

In the sun-drenched vineyards of southern France, Ramón toils far from his Andalusian roots. Through his co-worker Vincent, he stumbles upon the transformative power of poetry—words that awaken a deep passion within him. At the same time, his quiet longing for Lucía, a girl from his home village, begins to consume his thoughts.

As family expectations weigh heavily on him, Ramón is torn: Should he follow the path laid out for him, or chase a dream that feels just out of reach? Is there hope for love across distance and destiny?

“INTROSPECTIONS” | OENOLOGICAL CONCERT

From Sibelius to Ravel

Transcending the realm of sound, Ida Pelliccioli invites you to a global sensory experience revealing the connections between the compositional process of classical composers and the art of wine-making.

The blueprint of this explorative path is the theme of "Introspection" - a concept of self-reflective approach made with purity and authenticity. Casting the light on the essence, the origin, the truth, the core of things, these are the common attributes of the pieces and fine wines Ida Pelliccioli has paired for you.

Through this unique event and a conceptual understanding of both worlds, the audience will be introduced to a deepest spectrum of approaches to tasting and listening.

Saturday 28 March | 7 pm

$80 for Member & Partner Ticket with Trio Degustation - “INTROSPECTIONS” From Sibelius to Ravel | $95 for Non-Member Ticket with Trio Degustation - “INTROSPECTIONS” From Sibelius to Ravel

À TABLE ! - FROM VINES TO WINE

Francophonie through the wine

The journey begins in the vineyard, where terroirs, climates, and grape varieties give each wine its unique identity.

The exhibition then delves into the secrets of winemaking, where visitors discover the gestures, skills, and expertise behind each vintage, highlighting the craftsmen that bring wine to life. Finally, wine reveals itself through the senses. Aromas, textures, and pairings invite visitors to experience wine beyond knowledge alone. An immersive encounter, encouraging visitors to feel, remember, and get inspired.
