Genoa – I Vini del Cuore 2026

I Vini del Cuore 2026: the event returns to Genoa on March 8 and 9 in the historic Palazzo della Borsa

Genoa is preparing to host a new edition of I Vini del Cuore, the annual event linked to the Social Guide I Vini del Cuore, which in 2026 reaches its fifth edition and confirms itself as one of the most participated and recognizable events in the panorama of independent wine popularization.

The 2026 edition will take place on Sunday, March 8, and Monday, March 9, in the prestigious Sala del Palazzo della Borsa, in Piazza De Ferrari, one of the city’s most representative historical venues. A symbolic place, chosen to emphasize the growth of the project and its strong connection with Genoa, the city where the guide was born and developed.

The event brings together the wineries selected and awarded over the course of the guide’s editions, a participatory editorial project that puts the judgment of winelovers at the center, flanked by the selection, storytelling and dissemination work carried out throughout the year. The Wines of the Heart – I Vini del Cuore is not a simple tasting, but a moment of direct encounter between producers, wine enthusiasts, wine professionals and the press, under the banner of dialogue and sharing.

One of the event’s most identifiable elements will be confirmed for the 2026 edition as well: the “Wine of the Heart” vote by winelovers, who will be able to express their preference among the selected wineries attending the event for the first time, through the special postcard distributed during the event.
