Ferraro’s Ristorante invites guests to experience its next Taste & Learn on Saturday, Nov. 15 at 5 p.m. with wines from Lodali. Taste & Learn is Ferraro’s popular, monthly wine-tasting event that provides illuminating wine education along with a menu of imaginative, authentic Italian small plates created by Ferraro’s executive chef Mimmo Ferraro.Founded in 1939 by Giovanni Lodali in the small village of Treiso, Italy, Lodali has grown from a humble family cellar to one of Piedmont’s most respected wineries. Now led by the third generation, the estate continues its legacy in the heart of the Langhe, a UNESCO World Heritage wine region, producing acclaimed Barolo and Barbaresco. Guided by a deep respect for tradition, Lodali carefully cultivates its sun-drenched vineyards and oversees every step of production to craft wines celebrated around the world.
Taste & Learn attendees will begin with the Langhe Chardonnay, a refined white wine offering aromas of golden apple and pear alongside bright citrus, hints of vanilla and a touch of toasted almond. Next is the Lorens Barbera, a lively red bursting with cherry and raspberry flavors, balanced by refreshing acidity and a subtle layer of spice. The tasting continues with the 7 Fratelli Barbaresco, an elegant and complex wine revealing notes of ripe red berries, rose petal and licorice framed by fine tannins and a long, graceful finish. Finally, guests will savor the Lorens Barolo, showcasing layers of dark cherry, plum and tobacco with undertones of truffle and earthy spice that deepen beautifully over time.
“What I love about Lodali is how every wine reflects the land it comes from — the sun, the soil, the generations of care,” said Mimmo. “Our Taste & Learn dishes are designed to honor that same spirit, highlighting simple, elevated flavors that bring the wines to life.”
