Heartfelt thanks to all our friends and colleagues who came out to taste authentic Calabrian foods and wines with us at our offices and then later at @fiori_htx. The tastings were part of our #calabriastraordinaria campaign, a partnership with @regionecalabria. Our visit to Calabria earlier this summer was an eye-opening experience and we can’t wait to share our many wonderful discoveries with Italian food and wine lovers on this side of the Atlantic! Thank you to everyone who came out to taste these fantastic foods and wines. More to come. Stay tuned!

Quality, experience, history, and tradition. We couldn’t wish for a better calling card for the #calabriastraordinaria campaign. And it’s what the participating food and wine producers delivered over four days of full immersion in this extraordinary land. The IACC Texas and Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West, Los Angeles would like to thank everyone who has accompanied us on this journey. They made this project possible: Fausto Orsomarso, Assessore for economic and international development and tourism for the Regione Calabria; director general Tommaso Calabrò and trade director Gina Aquina from the Department of the President for Marketing and Investment (Regione Calabria). Arrivederci and thank you for the synergies you have created. We look forward to making the world aware of this remarkable land!

From bountiful fruit gardens to the jar, a treasure box of simplicity and tradition that guides the food lover into a powerful and entirely unique gastronomic experience. In Altomonte, a historic designated “art city,” chef Enzo Barbieri and Giuseppe Calabretta, owner of Terre di Balbia, showed us all the steps of the supply chain, from the harvest to the transformation to food product. As part of the Regione Calabria project “The American Frontier: Opportunities in Texas and Louisiana — top products from Calabria in the Golden State,” they also shared wine made from the Balbino grape, a variety only recently included in Italy’s national registry of wine grapes. These are all products ready to be exported to the U.S. market. It’s been an extraordinary trip for all of us at the IACC Texas and Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West, Los Angeles. Thank you Regione Calabria! We’ll see you in September stateside! #calabriastrordinaria

We can’t wait to get started exporting and sharing these products with American food lovers! #calabriastrordinaria

The Regione Calabria, IACC Texas, and Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West, Los Angeles tour ended last week with a visit to the vineyards of Cirò, where Gaglioppo, a native Calabrian grape, has been grown for generations.

Tastings included stops at the wonderful Senatore Vini and Linardi Wines wineries.

And last but not least, our group made a visit and tasting with Only Good Italy - Taste and Tradition, a purveyor of top Italian food products for the international market.

What an amazing tour! Thank Regione Calabria and its development director Fausto Orsomarso for organizing such a great itinerary.

More than 50 food and wine producers participated in the tour. We will be welcoming many of them to the U.S. in September of this year. Stay tuned!

The Regione Calabria, IACC Texas, and Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West, Los Angeles tour of Calabria continues!

Antonio Montesanto is an artisanal boat builder, one of the last on the Ionian sea. He is the inheritor and protector of an ancient tradition of wood working. We were lucky to get to meet him thanks to Region Calabria director for development Fausto Orsomarso.

We also had the opportunity to visit a top Calabrian winery, iGreco. Tommaso Greco, the third generation of this family-run estate, graciously led a wonderful tasting of extra-virgin olive oil and wines.
