Its festival is a celebration of the end of the grape harvests and an opportunity to give new life to the time and the joyful character of this event\, where one can taste good wine and discover the food and wine products of the Veneto tradition. \nInside a unique and historic location such as Dominio di Bagnoli in Bagnoli di Sopra (PD)\, among music\, good food and many interesting events during the day\, where of course wine is the protagonist; an extraordinaryopportunity to discover Dominio di Bagnoli and Friularo DOCG\, while having fun. \nProgram:\n\nThe Feast in the Hague from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.\nChildren’s grape harvest 12:30 p.m.\nWinery Tastings\nWine masterclass 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. (free reservations at https://www.festadelvinfriularo.it/)\nGrape pressing with feet 5:30 p.m.\nGastronomic area with typical specialties\nMarket of handicrafts and local products\nExhibition of vintage agricultural machinery\nSoap bubble show\nHot air balloon (ticket can be purchased on site)\nHorseback riding from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.\nGuided tours of the Dominion garden from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. (departure every 30 minutes\, with reservations on site)\n\nDuring the event each visitor can enjoy a tasting experience\, with the opportunity to choose and compare the wines offered at the winery. \n“Stradon del vin Friularo”\nThe road that connects Padua to Bagnoli di Sopra was once called the “Stradondel vin Friularo\,” and this “Stradon” made it possible to reach the countryside and taste the famous Friularo wine\, which throughout its thousand-year history was appreciated and extolled by the illustrious Carlo Goldoni\, Ruzzante\, and Ludovico Pastò\, a Venetian poet of the second half of the 1700s who dedicated a dithyramb entitled“El Vin Friularo de Bagnoli.” The Vin Friularo Festival celebrates this history of traditions in which the Dominion Winery has been a protagonist over the centuries. \nThe Dominion of Bagnoli\nThe location\, extraordinary of its kind in Italy\, holds centuries of history. Within the monumental Dominio complex in Bagnoli di Sopra\, it represents one of the most important addresses in the Veneto region for grandeur and beauty\, under the Superintendence of Fine Arts. From the 17th-century Villa Widmann-Borletti designed by the illustrious Venetian architect Baldassarre Longhena\, to the elegant Italian garden\, from the ancient granaries\, to the fascinating wine cellar\, to the endless Brolo with the avenue of Cipressini poplars that\, nestled among the Friularo vineyards\, connects the villa to a small lake. Between art\, shows and parties\, the Dominio was\, from its inception\, a place where Counts Widmann entertained their guests\, under the amused gaze of the Olympian gods\, represented in Antonio Bonazza’s precious statues. \nDominion Winery\nFrom the legacy of Benedictine monks\, the ancient Cantina Vinicola is located here\, from which the celebrated Vin Friularo once departed for the tables of the Serenissima\, and today an unmissable meeting point. Still active in wine production\, the Cantina del Dominio\, whose vaults were reinforced by iron beams designed in the late 19th century by Gustave Eiffel\, preserves the large\, ancient barrels and all the secrets of production. Wrapped in the scent of must\, it is now also an extraordinary location for events\, where you can toast while choosing your favorite labels. The two ancient granaries\, the Granary of Our Lady of the Masses and Granary of Holy Spirit\, after a major renovation\, retain their original charm in their immense spaces\, ideal for corporate events and weddings. \nAdmission ticket: 10 euros (with glass\, bag and 3 wine tastings included)\nPurchasable only on site on the day of the event.\nFree admission for those under 18.

Vinacria chooses to overcome the barrier of the elite to give wine back its popular voice\, making it the protagonist of a simple\, direct and engaging narrative. Wine as a collective heritage\, as a tool for dialogue and identity. \nAs Giada Capriotti\, president of the Vinacria Association\, explains\, this second edition grows in participation and content\, with new areas dedicated to oils\, spirits and realities of national distribution. Vinacria confirms itself not only as a wine festival\, but as a network and territorial enhancement project\, involving producers\, restaurateurs and schools\, promoting authentic communication and conscious drinking. At the same time\, it champions social values such as inclusion\, legality and respect. \nData from the 2025 edition\nThe 2025 edition will welcome over eighty wine\, oil and spirits producers from all over Sicily\, joined by some “overseas” presences that will enrich the comparison of territories and traditions. \nThese are joined by 6 masterclasses-five dedicated to wine and one to extra virgin olive oil-designed to offer moments of in-depth study led by oenologists\, sommeliers and communicators of national and international prominence. \nIn addition to its enological soul\, Vinacria presents itself as a true laboratory of culture and inclusion. It will involve students\, restaurateurs and local operators\, transforming Ortigia into a widespread festival of taste. The festival will also address social issues such as inclusion and the fight against violence\, confirming itself as a community project that unites people and territory. Included in the calendar of the European Region of Gastronomy 2025\, Vinacria is now a bridge between tradition and the future. \nSo two days of authentic emotions\, flavors and stories await you\, where the goblet becomes a symbol of a living\, shared and ever-evolving identity. \nFor information\, tickets and accreditation: www.vinacriawinefest.it URL:https://www.doctorwine.wine/event/vinacria-ortigia-wine-fest/?lang=en LOCATION:Antico Mercato di Ortigia\, Siracusa\, Italy CATEGORIES:Sicily Events,Tasting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.doctorwine.wine/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Vinacria.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20251126T080000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20251126T170000 DTSTAMP:20260423T074330 CREATED:20251126T092804Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251126T092804Z UID:49448-1764144000-1764176400@www.doctorwine.wine SUMMARY:Milan - Grand Tasting Gambero Rosso DESCRIPTION:Grand Tasting Gambero Rosso: On Nov. 30 in Milan\, big celebration of Italian wine with the best wines\, from north to south\, in every category.\nGambero Rosso Grand Tasting will bring together for the first time the Three Glasses\, the Three Glasses finalists\, and the Berebene awardees\, not forgetting the Rare Wines and the great labels pulled in less than 3\,000peaces. \nThe party atmosphere will reach its true climax at the end of the evening\, after 8 p.m.: there will in fact be a magnum party with a grand final toast. \nBut that’s not all: from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. there will be a Masterclass led by Best Wines of Italy Guide editors Marco Sabellico and Giuseppe Carrus\, featuring special awards from the latest edition of the guide (not included in this ticket) \nSummarizing:\nWhen: Sunday\, November 30 \n\nTasting from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.\nMasterclass from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.\n\nWhere: Milan Marriott Hotel\, Via Giorgio Washington 66\, Milan \nTickets: tickets can only be purchased online while supplies last. \n–> Click here to purchase both the masterclass and the tasting event. \n–> Click here to purchase the tasting event only. \nFor information write to eventi.istituzionali@gamberorosso.it URL:https://www.doctorwine.wine/event/milan-grand-tasting-gambero-rosso/?lang=en LOCATION:Milan Marriott Hotel\, Via Giorgio Washington 66\, Milano\, Italy CATEGORIES:Milan Events,Tasting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.doctorwine.wine/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Doctor-Wine-Calendario-4.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20251129 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20251130 DTSTAMP:20260423T074330 CREATED:20251107T121412Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251107T121412Z UID:47224-1764374400-1764460799@www.doctorwine.wine SUMMARY:Sparkle Day 2026 DESCRIPTION:Sparkle Day 2026 – Rome: Italy’s best bubbly returns to the spotlight with signature Cucina & Vini event honoring outstanding bubbles\nOn the threshold of the end of the year\, the highly anticipated Sparkle Day 2026\, the event celebrating quality Italian dry sparkling wines selected by Cucina & Vini’s “Sparkle” guide\, returns to Rome. \nAfter the last edition that recorded more than 200 labels in tastings\, Sparkle Day is again proposed as the key moment for enthusiasts\, operators and producers who want to touch the state of the art of Italian bubbles. \nDuring the day\, the new results of the Sparkle 2026 Guide will be presented.
