LAS VEGAS (March 2025) – Ferraro’s Ristorante invites guests to experience its next Taste & Learn on Saturday, April 19, at 5 p.m. with wines from Northern Italy’s Poderi Aldo Conterno. 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. 

The April Taste & Learn event spotlights wines from Poderi Aldo Conterno, located in the prestigious wine-producing area of Piedmont, Italy. Founded in the late 1960s by Aldo Conterno, a visionary winemaker who broke away from his family’s traditional estate to establish his own legacy, the winery is now run by the next generation. The estate focuses on crafting elegant, structured Barolos using minimal intervention, long maceration periods and extended aging in large oak casks. 

Taste & Learn attendees will begin with the Bussiador Chardonnay, a luxurious and well-structured white wine offering rich notes of ripe peach, vanilla and toasted almonds. Next is the Quartetto, an elegant blend of Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Syrah, delivering a refined medley of red berries, floral undertones and delicate spice. The Conca Tre Pile Barbera d’Alba offers a vibrant and structured expression of Barbera with flavors of dark cherry, plum and hints of cocoa. Lastly, guests will conclude with the Barolo Bussia, a robust wine showcasing aromas of dried roses, black tea and earthy truffle, embodying the depth and prestige of Poderi Aldo Conterno’s winemaking legacy.

“Wine and food are meant to elevate each other, and it’s my pleasure to offer a menu pairing my authentic Italian cuisine with the legendary wines of Poderi Aldo Conterno,” said Mimmo Ferraro, executive chef, Ferraro’s. “I designed each dish to highlight the depth and complexity of these exceptional vintages, creating a truly unforgettable evening.”
