Widespread tasting
It’s the core of the event, where all the wineries are presenting their wines.
The producers are gathered in different locations that allows our guests to taste our wines while moving and exploring our territory. This is the time of the year where the new Bolgheri Rosso vintage can be released on the market.
Bolgheri Superiore En Primeur
A professional tasting reserved for wine press and négociants, which takes place at the “Della Gherardesca” Castle.
Here the new vintage of Bolgheri Superiore is presented in absolute preview 4 months before its release.
La Cena sul Viale
The 2021 first edition ended with a special dinner on the Viale dei Cipressi between the producers and their guests. 1.000 people on 1.000 meters long table across Bolgheri’s signature landscape in one of the most beautiful and breathtaking moments of the wine world.
Due to its exceptional nature and its meaning this dinner is organized only in special moment for the Consorzio and not every edition.
