The wines of the abbeys

There is so much to discover, see, and experience around the wine being tasted. This blend of interests, between wine and its contexts, makes participation in wine events — such as Vini d’Abbazia — rich and valuable experiences. Wine is the magical magnet that attracts and reveals territories to those who, in addition to enjoying wine, also appreciate beauty, history, architecture, culture, and the local products. These authentic elements fully contribute to making these multisensory events truly rewarding. This also means that if you want to attend a wine event with people who aren’t particularly interested, you have plenty of reasons to convince them to join you anyway. Let’s talk about the third edition of “I Vini d’Abbazia,” which took place over the weekend from June 7th to 9th at the Abbey of Fossanova in Priverno, in the province of Latina. According to the press office, the event was a success, attracting 4,000 visitors who, over the three days, filled the tasting stations set up along the four porticoed sides of the square cloister. It was a journey of taste where each producer brought the best from their cellar and entrusted it to their most knowledgeable staff to present and offer to the large public of visitors.

A vineyard wedding: happiness and toasts with zero-mile wine

Cheers to the greenery, nature, simplicity, and the peaceful atmosphere away from the chaos of the city and busy roads. Cheers to the hillside views over the valleys, the photos among the neatly lined vines, and the best wine of the estate. Cheers to the relaxed newlyweds and a wedding that begins with the best omens for a country celebration. The engaged couple might be passionate about wine. Additionally, they may want to treat their loved ones to a reception right where the wine is born and carefully nurtured before it travels around the world. So, when these two desires align, the choice is clear. Everyone—fiancés, friends, families, and nosy acquaintances—immediately starts hunting for the perfect “where.” The world’s top wine-producing countries — Italy, France, Spain (in alphabetical order…) — have wineries scattered just about everywhere, so in theory, they could offer a wide range of reception locations.

Enologica Montefalco: we’re here

Montefalco, a key town in Umbria renowned for its wine production, will shine the spotlight on a new edition of “Enologica Montefalco – Abbinamenti” from September 20th to 22nd, 2024. Known as the “balcony of Umbria” since 1568 for its breathtaking views, this town becomes a true magnet of interest for wine enthusiasts and more for three days. The word “Abbinamenti” (Pairings) in the event’s title opens up enticing possibilities related to music, art, and food. For all these reasons, Around Wine is proud to be the Media Partner of the event, with a stand where we look forward to meeting all our friends who come to visit us. It may sound like a cliché, but if it’s true, it works perfectly: the heart of Italy, Umbria, is wonderfully green. This natural setting enhances the organization of large-scale events with wide participation. In this case, it’s a three-day event organized by the Consorzio Tutela Vini di Montefalco, in collaboration with La Strada del Sagrantino, and under the auspices of the Municipality of Montefalco and the Region of Umbria. An event for everyone: tourists, enthusiasts, and wine lovers, with tastings, workshops, cellar activities, and sunset experiences. Families are also at the heart of the event with the “Children’s Village.” It’s a great celebration to discover wineries and their best productions, as told by the experts from the wineries themselves.
