Stories from the Lucciola Table
This is where we collect the ideas, dinners, wines, ingredients, and moments that define Lucciola. Some stories begin in the kitchen, others at the table, others in the cellar. Together, they reflect our way of thinking about Italian fine dining in New York City: with time, coherence, and intention.

Wine Glasses - What are our your choices?
Alberto Ghezzi, Wine Director of Lucciola Fine Dining
"When people ask me, 'In what glass do you like to drink wine?' I always say, 'It depends on the moment.' Wine isn't just a drink—it's an experience, and the right glass enhances that experience. Whether hosting a dinner party with friends or opening a rare vintage for a special occasion, the choice of glass matters. It can highlight the wine’s nuances and deepen the connection with the people you’re sharing it with. At Lucciola, we curate each detail with this philosophy, making every sip memorable."
