Lucio D'Orsi: Cocktail Pairing is Creative, but the Wine List Remains a Cornerstone
Interview with Lucio D'Orsi on Vendemmie.com: the balance between cocktail pairing and wine selection at Don Geppi Restaurant, and the philosophy of conscious mixology at Dry Martini Sorrento.
In an interview with Vendemmie.com, Lucio D'Orsi explains how cocktail pairing has become an established reality at Don Geppi Restaurant: at least one in three tables chooses to pair cocktails with the starred menu courses, finding a creative dynamism that wine does not always offer. The wine list, however, remains a cornerstone — an essential reference for guests.
Dry Martini Sorrento is the only Italian outpost of the Barcelona brand founded by Javier de las Muelas. With over 200 references — including 100 Dry Martini variations — the venue stands out for its technique and care. Most requested: Classic, Dirty Martini, Smoky Martini, and Truffle Martini.
About 15 low or non-alcoholic cocktails enrich the menu, presented not as secondary alternatives but as creations crafted with the same care and technique as traditional drinks. Continuous team training and dialogue with Michelin-starred chef Mario Affinita are at the core of D'Orsi's philosophy.
