For a truly unbelievable view, take a ride in the Snow-Coach to the top of Gold Hill, where you will find Alpino Vino — the restaurant with the highest elevation in North America, at just under 12,000 feet. Alpino Vino is also known for its five-course tasting menu featuring cuisine of the Italian Alps, where Chef Nico Peccedi was born. Peccedi's wild mushroom ragout with creamy polenta is one standout; his signature tiramisu (his nonna’s recipe) is another. Telluride Ski Resort's wine director, Andrew Shaffner, offers a well-curated list heavy on Italian, Californian and French wines. Don't miss the heated multitiered deck (with sheepskin blankets) offering spectacular views of the Wilson Range.
