The story
Di Vini e Cucina di Giuseppe Santoro sits in Rosières, offering terroir Italian cuisine built on sincerity. Chef Giuseppe Santoro treats preparation as a matter of precision rather than complexity. He believes life is too short for mediocre meals, so the menu favors straightforward techniques executed with exactness. This commitment to honest flavors earned the kitchen thirteen points from Gault&Millau for 2026.
Guests enter a warmly lit villa positioned just above the town center. Discrete elegance defines the interior layout, where natural materials meet carefully curated decor. Colorful canvases by Marie Ciuro hang along the walls, adding visual rhythm without overwhelming the space. The owner intended the room to feel intimate, prioritizing shared happiness over formal dining rituals.
Santoro trained as a sommelier before stepping behind the stove, which shapes how he constructs the beverage list. A dedicated glass wine cellar sits prominently in the room, allowing visitors to browse selections while waiting. His oenological background ensures every bottle complements the Italian cooking on offer. Diners frequently use the collection to explore lesser-known vineyards alongside familiar favorites.
