SUMMARY:Asti - Douja d'Or 2026
DESCRIPTION:Douja d’Or 2026:From September 11 to 20\, one of the historic events on the Piedmont wine scenereturnsto Asti\nThe Event\nDouja d’Or was founded in 1967 and is closely tied to the wine and culinary traditions of the city and the Monferrato region. \nThe name of the event derives from the “douja\,” an ancient terracotta jug used to store and serve wine\, which has become the symbol of the event over time. The Douja d’Or brings a program to downtown Asti that highlights Piedmontese wine\, pairing it with gastronomy\, culture\, music\, and the exploration of the region. \nThe 2026 edition will take place over ten days\, with events held in squares\, buildings\, and other venues throughout the city center. The heart of the event is Piazza San Secondo\, where the Salotto del Vino offers a tasting journey through some of the wine appellations that have made Piedmont famous around the world. \nIn addition to wine\, the Douja d’Or offers a varied program of guided tastings\, masterclasses\, cooking demonstrations\, talks\, music\, and events dedicated to food and wine culture\, involving protection consortia\, industry associations\, sommeliers\, producers\, and local organizations. \nThe Wine Lounge\nIt is one of the event’s main highlights. Throughout the duration of Douja\, in Piazza San Secondo\, visitors can taste a selection of wines guided by sommeliers on a journey through Piedmont’s wine regions. \nThe Salotto is open at various times throughout the day and serves as the central venue for discovering and comparing the different expressions of the region’s wine heritage. \nTastings\, Master Classes\, and Food Pairings\nThe 2026 program features numerous in-depth events dedicated to Piedmontese wines and their potential food pairings. \nTopics covered include Alta Langa\, Barbera d’Asti\, Canelli\, Brachetto d’Acqui\, Vermouth Torino\, Langhe Nebbiolo\, Barolo\, Albugnano\, Gavi\, and Timorasso\, along with iconic products of Piedmontese and Italian cuisine. \nOf particular interest is the “Osti e Narranti” format\, which combines guided tastings of DOP products and local specialties. Among the pairings offered in 2026 are Roccaverano\, Prosciutto Crudo di Cuneo\, Gorgonzola\, Castelmagno\, and Piedmontese cured meats. \nThere are also plenty of events dedicated to mixology\, grappa\, and vermouth\, featuring masterclasses such as “L’Ora del Vermouth ” and “Cocktail in Rosso”: Barbera d’Asti takes on a new form—and more. \nWine and Gastronomy\nThe relationship between wine and cuisine is one of the central themes of Douja d’Or 2026. \nThe program features cooking demonstrations and tastings with pairings ranging from great Piedmontese wines to regional culinary specialties. Highlights include Piedmont-style mixed fried seafood\, the traditional Piedmontese boiled meat platter\, chocolate paired with grappa\, and cheese-tasting tours. \nThe event also looks beyond regional borders\, featuring events dedicated to wines from other parts of Italy and\, in 2026\, to an international region such as Tokaj in Hungary\, which will be showcased in a masterclass dedicated to the region’s UNESCO heritage. \nAsti and Monferrato Take Center Stage\nThe Douja d’Or is not just a wine festival\, but an opportunity to experience Asti and Monferrato through wine and cuisine. \nIn fact\, the program also includes the “Aperitours”—guided tours through the city’s streets\, squares\, and monuments accompanied by wine tastings—as well as initiatives that highlight the local area and its culture. \nThe event therefore appeals not only to wine enthusiasts but also to those who wish to explore the city and the cultural\, culinary\, and wine heritage of the Asti region. \nThe Cultural and Musical Aspect\nThe wine-tasting component is complemented by an entertainment program featuring live music and DJ sets\, including the “Calici & Note” events organized by the MOS Foundation. \nThis approach helps make Douja a multifaceted event that seamlessly combines wine tasting and socializing\, in-depth exploration\, and entertainment. \nThe Douja d’Or is therefore a particularly interesting event for those who want to learn about Piedmontese wine through its appellations\, its consortia\, and its iconic products\, but also for those who wish to experience Asti during a time when the city is bustling with events. \nFor ten days\, Asti becomes a showcase for Piedmont’s wine and culinary heritage\, with wine as the central theme and the Monferrato region as a destination to explore and savor. \nInformation Summary:\n\nWhen: September 11–20\, 2026\nWhere: Asti\n\nOfficial website: https://www.doujador.it\n\nA detailed program is available on the official website

SUMMARY:Turin – Terra Madre Salone del Gusto 2026
DESCRIPTION:Terra Madre Salone del Gusto 2026: From September 24th to 27th\, Turin returns to the center of food culture\, with biodiversity as the theme and guiding thread of the 16th edition\nFrom September 24 to 27\, 2026\, Terra Madre Salone del Gusto\, the major international event dedicated to good\, clean\, and fair food and food policies\, organized by Slow Food\, the City of Turin\, and the Piedmont Region\, returns to Turin. \nThe 2026 edition coincides with the 40th anniversary of Slow Food Italia and focuses on the theme “Biodiversity – Be Diversity\, ” interpreting biodiversity not only as the protection of biological and agricultural diversity\, but also as cultural\, gastronomic\, and social wealth. \nFor four days\, Turin’s historic center becomes the heart of a major international gathering of producers\, food communities\, chefs\, artisans\, experts\, and visitors\, with the large Terra Madre market spreading out across the squares and streets of the city center. Among the main areas involved are Piazza San Carlo\, Piazza Castello\, Piazza Carlo Alberto\, Piazza CLN\, Via Roma\, and Piazza Vittorio\, along with numerous other locations throughout the city. \nThe Terra Madre Market\nThe market is one of the highlights of the event and brings together hundreds of Italian and international producers\, selected for their commitment to protecting biodiversity and promoting their local regions. It’s an opportunity to meet producers in person\, learn about often-overlooked foods and traditions\, and discover the work of the Slow Food network’s communities. \nIn addition to the market\, Terra Madre offers a packed schedule of conferences\, seminars\, Taste Workshops\, dining events with chefs and producers\, sensory games\, and educational activities\, as well as new formats developed in collaboration with Turin’s leading cultural institutions. \nSpecial attention is also given to the younger generations\, with activities in schools and in school and community gardens\, to explore the relationship between food\, the environment\, agriculture\, and the future. \nBiodiversity and 40 Years of Slow Food\nThe theme of biodiversity takes on a particularly broad significance in 2026. The slogan “Biodiversity – Be Diversity” invites us to view diversity as a value worth protecting in all its forms: the diversity of ecosystems and crops\, but also the diversity of knowledge\, cultures\, and communities. \nThe 16th edition also serves as an opportunity to reflect on Slow Food Italy’s 40-year history\, through initiatives that trace the history of the association and its main projects\, including the Ark of Taste\, the Slow Food Presidia\, and the Slow Food Alliance of Chefs. \nEvents celebrating this anniversary include meetings and talks hosted\, among other venues\, at the Gallerie d’Italia andthe Auditorium Reale Mutua\, featuring prominent figures from the worlds of culture\, food\, and social activism. \nNot Just Turin: The Terra Madre Journey\nTerra Madre Salone del Gusto is the centerpiece of a much broader journey. \nThe Road to Terra Madre project complements the event with activities organized in Italy and around the world\, while Terra Madre Off\, from September 21 to 28\, features initiatives\, meetings\, and experiences in various locations throughout Turin and Piedmont. \nThe event in Turin thus becomes the culmination of a journey that has involved the international Slow Food network and the communities working daily to defend biodiversity and promote more sustainable food systems for months. \nAdmission and Events\nIn 2026\, general admission to Terra Madre Salone del Gusto is free. \nSome events on the program\, including the Taste Workshops and Dining Events\, require a fee and advance registration. The official program is already online and is being updated regularly with new events. \nTerra Madre Salone del Gusto thus remains a particularly interesting event not only for food enthusiasts\, but also for anyone who wants to learn about products\, people\, cultures\, and regions through food and to understand the role that biodiversity can play in the future of food. \nSummary: \n\nDates: September 24–27\, 2026\nLocation: Turin\, historic center and other venues throughout the city\nOrganizers: Slow Food\, the City of Turin\, and the Piedmont Region\nAdmission: Free\, with some paid events\nOfficial website:https://2026.terramadresalonedelgusto.com/

SUMMARY:Morbegno in Cantina 2026
DESCRIPTION:Morbegno in Cantina 2026: from September 25th to October 11th\, three weekends featuring historic wineries\, great Valtellina wines\, and local flavors\nFrom September 25th to ’ October 11th\, 2026\, Morbegno returns to Cantina\, an event that brings a widespread journey to the historic center of Morbegno\, in the heart of Valtellina\, to discover the wines and flavors of the area. \nAn itinerary between wine and history\nFor three weekends\, historic wineries\, courtyards\, courtyards\, palaces\, and cloisters open their doors\, transforming the city into a tasting itinerary to be explored on foot. Wine thus becomes the common thread for understanding an important part of Valtellina’s cultural heritage\, between places not normally accessible and the expressions of viticulture characterized by terraces\, craftsmanship\, and a strong territorial identity. \nThe 2026 edition introduces a significant new feature: the wineries will also be open on Friday evenings\, from 6 to 10 pm\, in addition to Saturdays and Sundays. The event takes place on the weekends of September 25–27\, October 2–4 and October 9–11\, with tastings on Fridays from 6pm to 10pm\, on Saturdays from 12pm to 10pm and on Sundays from 11am to 6pm. \nThe tasting routes\nVisitors can choose from several tasting tours\, built around different interpretations of Valtellina’s winemaking heritage. \nAmong the 2026 offerings are Rossi e Bio\, which compares Valtellina Superiore and Riserve with organic produce; Sforzati e Bolle\, dedicated to the dialogue between the structure and intensity of Sforzati and the freshness of bubbles; and Rossi\, Bianchi & amp; Rosé\, which offers a journey through different expressions of local production. \nAdded to these are Voices of the Vineyard – from the Producer to the Chalice\, housed in the Cloister of Sant’Antonio\, where ten small producers can directly talk about their wines\, their work in the vineyard and their relationship with the area. It is a particularly interesting formula because it introduces\, alongside the guided route\, a more direct relationship between winemaker and visitor. \nDiscovering Valtellina’s heroic viticulture\nThe tasting thus also becomes an opportunity to learn about Valtellina’s heroic viticulture\, that of terraced vineyards and dry stone walls\, and to encounter some of the wines that most represent its identity\, from Sforzato to Valtellina Superiore. \nMorbegno in Cantina allows us to approach this heritage not only through the chalice\, but also through the landscape and the stories of those who continue to cultivate the vine in an area where viticulture still requires significant manual labor today. \nNot just wine: experiences in the area\nWine is\, however\, only one element of the experience. Morbegno in Cantina offers a program of activities dedicated to discovering the area\, with guided tours of Palazzo Malacrida\, trekking and e-biking through vineyards and the landscape\, experiences dedicated to oil\, viticulture activities\, and activities for families and young people. \nAmong the new features for 2026 is a greater focus on the possibility of experiencing the event differently from the traditional tasting itinerary. The Non-Alcoholic Pass offers a parallel itinerary with juices\, infusions\, fermented foods\, and other non-alcoholic beverages related to the area\, while the Wine Jobs Experience addresses the topic of wine professions and training opportunities for young people. \nValtellina wine and gastronomy\nFinally\, there’s no shortage of connection to Valtellina’s gastronomy: wines are accompanied by traditional local products and preparations\, on a journey that brings together wine\, food\, history\, and territory. \nThe event thus becomes an opportunity to learn about Valtellina through some of its most characteristic expressions\, from wine to cuisine\, to the landscape and historical heritage of Morbegno. \nA new phase for the demonstration\nThe 2026 edition also marks the beginning of a new phase for Morbegno in Cantina\, entrusted for the next five years to SGP Grandi Eventi\, in partnership with PLM Servizi\, with the involvement of local associations and organizations. \nA formula that aims to strengthen the experiential dimension of the event while keeping the relationship with Morbegno and its community at the center. \n\nDates: September 25–27\, October 2–4\, and October 9–11\, 2026\nOpening hours: Friday from 6pm to 10pm\, Saturday from 12pm to 10pm and Sunday from 11am to 6pm.\nLocation: Morbegno (SO)\, historic center

SUMMARY:Marsala – Unusual Marsala 2026
DESCRIPTION:Insolito Marsala 2026: from September 30th to October 4th\, five days of wine\, food\, hospitality\, and new ideas to discover western Sicily\nFrom September 30 to October 4\, 2026\, Insolito Marsala returns\, a project dedicated to the world of wine\, Ho.Re.Ca.\, hospitality\, and innovation. For its third edition\, it expands its scope from the city of Marsala to western Sicily. Wineries\, salt pans\, restaurants\, accommodations\, cities and landscapes thus become part of a journey that combines training\, tasting\, discovery of the territory and relationships. \nInsolito Marsala was founded with the goal of creating opportunities for businesses\, professionals\, students\, institutions\, creators\, and the public to come together\, bringing local expertise into dialogue with national and international perspectives. It is neither a trade show nor a traditional wine festival\, but rather a widespread experience that uses wine and hospitality as a starting point to tell the story of a region in a contemporary way. \nThe 2026 edition therefore marks a significant evolution of the project: Marsala remains the starting point\, but the event sets out on a journey\, passing through new destinations in western Sicily and offering a different way to explore and experience the region through wine\, cuisine\, hospitality\, and innovation \nProgram\nThe project revolves around three areas: Wine\, Ho.Re.Ca.\, and Hospitality 3.0. \n\nThe wine-focused component includes tastings\, winery tours\, themed itineraries\, and opportunities to meet producers and explore the regions of western Sicily. Wine thus becomes a means of discovering stories\, people\, products\, and new forms of wine tourism.\nThe Ho.Re.Ca. sector\, on the other hand\, involves restaurants\, bars\, cafes\, wineries\, hotels\, and other hospitality businesses through training\, meetings\, masterclasses\, and opportunities for discussion tailored to those who work daily with the public and in customer service. The program covers everything from wine to coffee\, from dining room service to communication and new tools for the hospitality industry.\nWith “Hospitality 3.0\,” Insolito Marsala focuses instead on the evolution of tourism and hospitality\, addressing topics such as artificial intelligence\, digital content\, immersive experiences\, hospitality tech\, and destination storytelling through talks\, case studies\, and meetings with Italian and international guests.\n\nThe day is structured to alternate between different activities: the morning is dedicated to professional discussions and training\, the afternoon to experiences centered on wine\, food\, and the landscape\, while the evening takes on a more convivial atmosphere\, featuring dinners\, DJ sets\, music\, mixology\, and opportunities to socialize. \nAmong the training programs offered is the Insolito Academy\, which focuses on professional development in the areas of wine\, hospitality\, food and wine tourism\, communication\, artificial intelligence\, storytelling\, and new experiential models. \nThe schedule is being updated on the official website \nInformation Summary\n\nDates: September 30 – October 4\, 2026\nLocations: Marsala and other locations in western Sicily\nOfficial Website: https://insolitomarsala.com/
