Thank you to all our exhibitors and participants for making Taste of Italy Dallas such a wonderful experience for all involved!

The second annual Taste of Italy Dallas (Nov. 9-10, 2023) included:

– 40 exhibitors from Italy and the U.S.
– 150 buyers in attendance from across the state of Texas.
– A sold-out master class on the wines of Rome.

The next day, our exhibitors took part in a public-facing event hosted by Eataly, “All You Can Eataly,” where food and wine lovers had the opportunity to experience:

– 25+ tasting stations.
– 50+ Italian wines.
– 25+ Italian and local craft beers.
– Light bites from local restaurants.
– Italian cocktails.
– In-person chef demos.
– Line dancing and live music.

The organizers would also like to thank sponsor Haynes Boone who hosted our exhibitors and the mayor of Reggio Emilia, Luca Vecchi, for a welcome reception and expert panel. The law firm’s New York-based partner Giorgio Bovenzi and Dallas associate Joanna Pearce delivered excellent talks on new U.S. rules for the importation of food and wine. Warm thanks also to associate Colin Cox and partner Larry Pascal for putting such a great event together for the visiting Italians.
