There are plenty of St. Patrick's Day events (some of them even food-related!) that you can enjoy across the city today -- visit our extensive calendar listings for a full rundown.

But if you're looking for something in the culinary scene that won't require you to wear green, then head to Il Posto, 2011 East 17th Avenue, for today's luncheon with Salvatore Ferragamo.

Ferragamo runs Il Borro, an intimate resort and winery in Tuscany, Italy; he'll present new wines from the vineyard at the luncheon starting at 12:30 p.m. Call 303-394-0100 or visit www.ilpostodenver.com.
