Italian 100% scratch kitchen Primo at the JW Marriott Tucson Starr Pass Resort & Spa is hosting a four-course wine dinner from 7 – 9 p.m. on Tuesday, March 21.

The featured wine of the evening will come from Italian vineyards Pieropan and Allegrini.

Chef de cuisine Roderick LeDesma adds a flavorful twist to braised lamb shank with curried cauliflower and arugula pistachio pesto. The risotto will be red from dry Amarone wine and luxuriously rich from bone marrow.

Spanish guitarist Gabriel Francisco will enchant the dinner with live tunes.
