Cocconato d’Asti – Cocco…Wine 2026

Coconut…Wine 2026: One of the most delicious and popular food and wine events in Piedmont has reached its 25th edition this year

The event, organized by Go Wine in agreement with the Municipality of Cocconato and the Cocconato Riviera del Monferrato Consortium, will take place in Cocconato d’Asti from Friday, September 4th to Sunday, September 6th, 2026.

A successful formula that is renewed in each edition and that promotes several factors: the valorization of the places (the landscape of Cocconato, the historic center to walk), the gastronomic tradition (typical products such as Cocconato robiola, many taste places in the town and surrounding areas),wine with a group of wineries that team up in the local consortium and open the doors of the event to other wineries in Piedmont.

Cocconato will thus transform into a virtual wine street, where you can alternate wine tastings with typical local products, filling the town’s historic center, home to the wineries of Cocconato and Monferrato.

Il borgo Cocconato d’Asti

Cocconato has always been a municipality with a strong food and wine vocation and a village of taste; many restaurants are located in the historic center and surrounding countryside, reflecting the traditional hospitality that brings many tourists and onlookers to this corner of Monferrato every year.

So not just wine! Since its first edition, the Cocco…Wine event has also been a showcase for typical local products, showcasing local artisans of taste and some guests who participate in the event every year.

L’iniziativa Cammina il Borgo di Cocconato

The 2026 edition of Cocco…Wine confirms its program as an initiative “Camminare il Borgo” to promote and raise awareness of Cocconato d’Asti through a guided walk through the heart of the historic center, in the upper part. A journey that allows you to discover, step by step, the architectural, cultural, and landscape heritage of the upper part of one of Piedmont’s most fascinating villages.

Along the way, you will be able to admire historic buildings, Gothic porticoes, churches and panoramic views, in a perfectly preserved urban context. The visit takes place entirely in the pedestrian center and allows for a deeper understanding of the town’s history and identity, with references to its agricultural and food and wine vocation.

“Camminare il Borgo” it is proposed as an experience accessible to all, designed to unite culture, discovery and valorization of the territory.

Days and times of the initiative will be communicated on the official page of the event.
