The event\, organized by the \n Consorzio Tutela Vino Lessini Durello\n\, will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Verona\, becoming for one day the meeting point for oenologists\, producers\, operators and fans of signature bubbles. \nThe event was created to valorize Lessini Durello Doc\, the symbolic sparkling wine of the Lessini Mountains\, but over time it has also become a moment of broader comparison on the national sparkling wine scene\, bringing into dialogue different territories\, methods and styles. “Durello & Friends” in fact is not only a showcase\, but a real taste workshop\, where technical and cultural issues related to the production of the classic method and charmat method are explored in depth\, with a focus on the evolution of taste and the challenges of sustainability. \nThe program of this edition\n\n2 p.m.: Masterclass “Questione di metodo: Classici a confronto\,” an opportunity to explore the different declinations of the metodo classico through a guided tour by industry experts and some of Italy’s most influential producers.\n4 p.m.: Talk show “Bubbles from classic method: the state of the art\,” a discussion moment dedicated to the analysis of the most current trends in the world of bubbles\, between technical innovation\, territorial identity and new consumption styles.\nFrom 5:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.: the tasting counter\, where the protagonists will be the best Lessini Durello and Monti Lessini Doc sparkling wines. The main wineries of the area will be present\, ready to tell their interpretations of this unique wine\, son of a volcanic terroir that gives durella grapes acidity\, freshness and a distinctive mineral character. An oenological heritage that in recent years has won more and more admirers in Italy and abroad\, thanks to its elegance and extraordinary ability to age. \n\nWith Durello & Friends\, Verona therefore once again celebrates the culture of wine and hospitality\, offering a complete experience that combines education\, tasting and conviviality.

A cenacle dedicated to Sicilian wine with one day dedicated to trade professionals and one to the general public \nThe appointment is for Nov. 23 and 24\, 2025 at the Antico Mercato di Ortigia\, in the heart of the historic center of Syracuse\, where producers\, experts\, enthusiasts\, and taste travelers will meet to celebrate an authentic tale of Sicilian wine. \nThe exhibition will be spread over two days:\n\nSunday\, November 23\, dedicated to the general public with tasting booths and informative talks\nMonday\, Nov. 24\, reserved for industry professionals\, buyers and the press to foster opportunities for exchange and new professional collaborations.\n\nConceived and organized by Giada Capriotti\, president of Vinacria Association\, in collaboration with Kiube Studios\, the fair was born as a cultural project capable of combining storytelling\, experience and education. After a first year that recorded an extraordinary adhesion of public and institutions with more than 2\,500 attendees\, Vinacria is preparing for a new edition with more than 80 producers (including wine\, oil\, spirits and national and international distributions) confirming itself among the most anticipated food and wine events in the Italian wine world. \nThis year the theme chosen is POP – Popular\, accessible\, inclusive\, authentic – with the aim of bringing wine back to its original dimension: that of a universal language\, capable of uniting people and cultures\, in perfect line with the trends that are depopulating\, even among a younger audience. 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.

The format’s historic pay-off – Do Not Modify\, Do Not Interfere – summarizes the philosophy of frank wines\, where the role of grapes\, terroir and natural conditions is authentically expressed in the glass. \nThe festival is spread over two intense days of tastings\, meetings and insights. \nThe first day is open to wine lovers\, enthusiasts and the general public with the classic walk-around tasting at the tasting tables.

It is also possible to engage with those who actually work in the vineyard and cellar according to practices that respect nature. \nThe second day is dedicated to industry professionals\, with access reserved for restaurateurs\, wine merchants\, buyers and journalists. More technical discussions\, one-on-one meetings with producers and targeted insights into natural wine trends and market opportunities are developed during this professional phase. \nComplementing the program are side events\, thematic seminars and convivial moments – in venues and partner venues around the city – known as NOT OFF. The side events expand the experience beyond just the tasting room\, touching on aspects of gastronomic culture\, territory and conviviality related to natural wine. \nParticipating in NOT – Vini Franchi means immersing yourself in the universe of authentic wine\, giving space to labels capable of telling the story of their terroir and their winemaker\, and discovering how the artisanal\, non-interventionist approach is redefining the sensibility of winelovers and professionals alike. \nUseful Information:\nDates: \n\nJanuary 15 10 a.m. – 8 p.m.\nJanuary 16 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.\n\nLocation: Cantieri Culturali alla Zisa\, PalermoFor tickets and accreditation\, visit NOT – Vini Franchi URL:https://www.doctorwine.wine/event/palermo-not-vini-franchi-2026/?lang=en LOCATION:Cantieri Culturali alla Zisa\, Palermo\, Italy CATEGORIES:Sicily Events,Tasting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.doctorwine.wine/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/NOT-Vini-Franchi-2026.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20260117T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20260118T200000 DTSTAMP:20251218T170207Z CREATED:20251218T170207Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251218T170207Z UID:49856-1768651200-1768766400@www.doctorwine.wine SUMMARY:Rome - Nebbiolo in the Heart 2026 DESCRIPTION:Nebbiolo in the Heart 2026\, Jan. 17 and 18 Nebbiolo grape excellence in the heart of Rome\nOne of the most eagerly awaited events for lovers of wine and great Italian reds returns to Rome: Nebbiolo nel Cuore 2026\, the 12th edition of the event exclusively dedicated to the famous Nebbiolo grape variety.
