A Sea of Leaves 2026 – National Bio Guide Presentation: a toast to the sustainability of Italian wine
The Organic Guide – Wine Selection is the only Italian guide entirely dedicated to wines from certified organic agriculture and in conversion. A well-established reference for wine professionals, enthusiasts and wine lovers interested in sustainable and quality viticulture. Edited by Antonio Stanzione, it is published by Rubbettino Editore.
The Guide was created with the aim of chronicling the Italian organic wine scene through rigorous selections, blind tastings and scores ranging from 2 to 5 leaves. The prestigious Foglia d’Oro is awarded to labels that stand out for their elegance, typicality and organoleptic quality.
The 2025 edition reviewed more than 2,500 labels and involved more than 550 wineries. The seventh edition 2026 aims to further consolidate its role as a compass in the world of Italian green wine.
The national event “Un Mare di Foglie 2026” will be held on Saturday, January 24, 2026 in the prestigious setting of theHotel Villa Pamphili in Rome (via della Nocetta 105). The day will open with the official presentation of the Organic Guide 2026 to the press, operators and the public, accompanied by the “Golden Leaves” award ceremony; a moment of celebration in which the most representative wines and producers for quality, typicality and consistency with organic values will be recognized.
One of the new features this year is the introduction of special awards dedicated to specific merits in the fields of innovation and sustainability. There will be categories such as Best Female Winery, Best Winery North, Central and South, and Best Winemaker Under 40. The special awards reflect the growing focus on diversity, inclusion and virtuous practices in the wine industry.
In the afternoon, starting at 3 p.m., the tasting tables with all the award-winning wines selected in the Organic Guide 2026 will be open to the public. This is a unique opportunity to taste the best realities of Italian organic wine, meet the producers and learn more about the stories, territories and techniques that make these wines an expression of sustainability and respect for nature.
