Chefs Andrea Rosso and Cristiano Rosso will be the stars of the culinary lineup. \nBest Wishes to the Sentieri del Carignano \nIn October 2026\, the Sentieri del Carignano will “celebrate” its first anniversary. This walking food-and-wine tour\, created as part of the Santa Barbara Mining Trail\, was officially launched in September 2025 as a route dedicated to the relationship between the Sulcis landscape\, mining culture\, and Carignano del Sulcis DOC wine. \nSpanning twelve stages\, the Sentieri del Carignano trails now stretch over 200 kilometers through vineyards\, along the coast\, through villages\, past archaeological sites\, and past remnants of mining activity. They offer the chance to meet producers\, visit wineries\, and experience firsthand one of the most distinctive aspects of Sardinia’s wine-growing heritage. This past year has marked significant growth for the project\, which has expanded from its initial length of about 60 kilometers to its current length of over 200 kilometers\, accompanied by an intensive promotional campaign involving the entire community\, businesses\, and residents. \nThe Carignano Trails—a key part of the Sulcis region’s transformation into an authentic tourist destination and now synonymous with active tourism—took center stage in two press tours for the food and wine trade press Italian and international (A third press tour will take place in late October 2026) and have begun to gain increasing visibility in the world of wine tourism and slow tourism. The project has also been presented at the world’s leading wine events\, including Vinitaly and the Merano Wine Festival\, where he made his debut in 2025 with a master class dedicated to Carignano del Sulcis. \nIt is precisely this evolution that makes the second edition of Passi di Gusto particularly significant: some of its routes will intersect with the Sentieri del Carignano\, linking two projects that share a common goal— to showcase the region through the direct experience of walking and its food and wine heritage. Passi di Gusto thus becomes a new opportunity to discover the Sulcis region at a leisurely pace: not just a simple hike\, but a journey through the landscape\, the history of mining\, the vineyards\, and the flavors of an authentic Sardinia\, where every step can become an encounter and every product a story of the region. \nUseful Information\nThe detailed program for the second edition and information on how to participate are available here: https://www.cmsb.it/it/Passi-di-gusto-2026 URL:https://www.doctorwine.wine/event/sardinia-passi-di-gusto-2026/?lang=en LOCATION:Sardegna Sud-Occidentale CATEGORIES:Sardinia Event,Tasting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.doctorwine.wine/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Passi-di-gusto.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261011 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261012 DTSTAMP:20260929T153116Z CREATED:20260929T153116Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260929T153116Z UID:64149-1791676800-1791763199@www.doctorwine.wine SUMMARY:Rome – Lazio in Calice 2026 DESCRIPTION:Lazio in a Glass: On October 11 in Rome\, the first edition of an event dedicated to Lazio wines\, as told by the women who produce them\nWomen in Lazio’s Wine Industry\nOn Sunday\, October 11\, 2026\, Le Formiche Lab in Rome will host the first edition of “Lazio in Calice\,” an event dedicated to wine culture and the promotion of the region’s wine-growing areas. \nThe event will focus on the wines produced by the women of “Donne del Vino Lazio\,” who will meet wine enthusiasts and industry professionals in person at the tasting tables.

The project dedicated to one of the most fascinating stories in the world of wine\, winner of the 2026 Iter Vitis Award\nMalvasia Pop-Up\nMalvasia Pop Up™ is a cultural and food-and-wine project conceived in Venice by Laura Riolfatto—a cultural project manager\, wine storyteller\, and sommelier— dedicated to researching and promoting the nineteen varieties of Italian Malvasia and their historical ties to Venice and the Mediterranean. \nAt Docks Cantieri Cucchini in San Pietro di Castello \, as well as along routes extending to the city of Venice and the lagoon\, the project takes shape through social events where wine and food are the focal points of conversation among people\, lagoon cruises\, urban tours\, and special gatherings. \nRecently\, Malvasia Pop Up™ received The Iter Vitis Award 2026 – Best Wine and Food Experience for its contribution to promoting wine heritage\, cultural tourism\, and sustainable regional development. The award—sponsored by Iter Vitis\, the international federation that celebrates and protects the world’s wine heritage by promoting sustainable wine tourism – recognized the value of an independent project that uses the Wine heritage as a tool for knowledge and cultural storytelling. In addition\, on that occasion Laura Riolfatto has been named Malvasia Ambassador for Malvasia Myth\, an international project dedicated to promoting Malvasia wines and their cultural and viticultural heritage. \n“Malvasia Pop Up was born from a very simple question\, – says its creator\, Laura Riolfatto – ‘How many stories can we tell starting with a glass of Malvasia?’ From there\, I embarked on a journey that led me to bring together wine\, history\, art\, food\, photography\, and culinary culture\, exploring the deep connection that links Malvasia wines to Venice and the Mediterranean. Receiving this award means seeing this very approach to wine recognized—not merely as something to be tasted\, but as a language through which to convey culture\, memory\, and history.” \nEvent Calendar\n\nOctober 17\, toward evening\, in the Lagoon will take Malvasia Pop Up™ out onto the water\, aboard Camoma’s historic bragozzo\, the Sant’Alban\, for a journey through the Venetian Lagoon at the intersection of wine\, landscape\, and memory. The boat trip—which will depart from San Pietro di Castello—will become part of the narrative: the history of Malvasia\, its trade\, and its centuries-old connection to Venice will intertwine with that of Dorona\, the lagoon’s iconic grape variety. A stop at Vignole\, amid vegetable gardens and the lagoon landscape\, will feature a tasting and an introduction to the island’s culinary delights\, before returning to Venice as evening falls. An experience designed to explore the lagoon through wine\, following the traces of a culture born from the encounter between water\, land\, and the vine.\nOn November 20\, it will be time for The Night of the Malvasias—Stories\, Mysteries\, and Wine in Autumn Venice: a special event featuring Venetian writer and storyteller Alberto Toso Fei\, in which stories\, legends\, and anecdotes from Venice’s most secret corners will intertwine with the history of Malvasia and the traces this wine has left in the city over the centuries. The story will continue at the table with a tasting of three rare Italian red Malvasia wines\, on a journey through regions\, grape varieties\, and memory\, organized in collaboration with Iter Vitis\, a Cultural Route of the Council of Europe and with the Consortium for the Protection of Malvasia di Casorzo DOC. The event will take place at the Cantieri Cucchini Docks inside Tesa3 Marzotto.\nOn December 20\, the 2026 program will conclude with The Table as a Cultural Language\, a lunch and storytelling event dedicated to Italian red Malvasia wines. The table as a meeting place for wine\, food\, and culture\, where the tasting becomes the thread of a story that weaves through territories\, traditions\, memories\, and gestures of conviviality. Red Malvasia wines\, in their various expressions\, will accompany a gastronomic journey designed to convey—through taste—the identity of the places from which they originate. An intimate gathering for a select few guests\, on the eve of Christmas\, that will symbolically bring the second year of Malvasia Pop Up™ to a close by returning wine to its most ancient and universal dimension: that of the table as a space for connection\, storytelling\, and sharing. The event will take place at the Cantieri Cucchini Docks inside Tesa3 Marzotto.\n\nVia Querinissima\n Malvasia Pop Up™ is also part of the Via Querinissima network —the European Cultural Route that retraces the journey undertaken in the 15th century by the Venetian nobleman and merchant Pietro Querini. It thus connects Venice with the European territories featured in his story. This participation is in line with Malvasia Pop Up™’s mission to forge connections between wine\, history\, cultural routes\, and European heritage\, starting from Venice and its centuries-old openness toward the Mediterranean and Europe.

Having begun before mid-August\, it was the earliest on record for the region since 2003: the harvest began with the earliest-ripening varieties\, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon\, followed by Friulano\, Malvasia Istriana\, and Ribolla Gialla\, and is now wrapping up with the red grapes. \nThe lack of rain for most of the summer and the heat waves—which occurred mainly just before harvest—affected yields in some areas and for certain varieties\, also impacting the analytical parameters of the grapes; in some cases\, this resulted in higher sugar concentrations and lower acidity. The rains\, though late\, have nevertheless improved the overall picture: the quality of the musts today bodes well for wines of excellent quality. \n“We haven’t started harvesting this early since 2003\,” says President Luca Raccaro\, “and that alone says a lot about how the climate is changing the way we work in the vineyard. A rainless summer and heat waves just before the harvest affected yields and\, in some cases\, the balance between sugar and acidity; the rains\, though late\, ultimately restored the overall picture. Today we look at the musts in the cellar with confidence: the conditions are right for wines of excellent quality.” \nCollio Evolution 2026\nÈ Collio Evolution the cornerstone around which much of the Consortium’s work revolves: From October 24 to 26\, the event returns for its second edition in Cormons\, in the City Hall at 22 Piazza XXIV Maggio\, the same venue as last year. Established in 2025\, it is the appellation’s flagship event: the place where the region showcases itself and engages in dialogue with the press and industry professionals. The title chosen for 2026\, “Beyond the Grape Variety. From the Vineyard to the Glass: The Essence of Pinot Grigio’s Identity”\, also indicates the grape variety to which this edition is dedicated: Pinot Grigio\, seen as a gateway to the region’s soils\, microclimates\, and winemaking practices. \nOver the course of the three-day event\, the Consortium expects more than 50 Italian and international journalists. The event will be preceded by a press tour reserved for foreign journalists invited by Collio Evolution\, who will arrive from the United States\, Brazil\, Poland\, Austria\, the UK\, Canada\, and the Netherlands to experience the region before the event. \n“We’re delighted about this press tour because it gives foreign journalists the chance to really get to know our region even before the event begins\,” says Lavinia Zamaro\, Director of the Collio Consortium. \nProgram\nThe program kicks off on Saturday with a masterclass dedicated to Collio Pinot Grigio. \nNext up is the conference featuring the presentation of the second part of the Nomisma study\, this time focused on the Horeca sector. \nA second masterclass is scheduled for Sunday morning\, followed by a walk-around tasting with the producers. A technical tasting dedicated to various interpretations and vintages of Pinot Grigio is also reserved for the press. \n“Collio Evolution is the moment when the appellation takes stock of itself: from technical tastings to an analysis of research data\, all the way to direct dialogue with producers. These various tools all serve a single purpose: to provide our winemakers and guests with a clear snapshot of the current state of the Collio region\,” Raccaro emphasizes. \nFull details are available on the official website of the Collio Wine Protection Consortium \nTickets Available Online URL:https://www.doctorwine.wine/event/cormons-collio-evolution-2026/?lang=en LOCATION:Sale del Comune di Cormons\, Piazza XXIV Maggio 22\, Cormons\, Italy CATEGORIES:Events Friuli Venezia Giulia,Tasting ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.doctorwine.wine/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Collio-Evolution.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20261024T110000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20261025T190000 DTSTAMP:20260911T085758Z CREATED:20260911T085758Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260911T085758Z UID:62530-1792839600-1792954800@www.doctorwine.wine SUMMARY:Villa Cavazza di Bomporto - Terre di Vite 2026 DESCRIPTION:Terre di Vite 2026: the artisanal winemakers’ event\, dedicated to Artisanal Intelligence\, returns to Villa Cavazza on October 24th and 25th\nTerre di Vite returns on October 24 and 25\, 2026\, to Villa Cavazza di Bomporto\, in the province of Modena\, for its fifteenth edition.
