After the break imposed by the recent health emergency, Trentino's longest-running wine festival is back. The embrace between Trento and its wines is transformed - in keeping with a tradition dating back to 1925 - into a celebration of conviviality and sociability. From 11 to 14 May, "Trentino & Wine" will turn the spotlight on the winemaking vocation of our province and will do so by proposing a programme of initiatives that from Palazzo Roccabruna, home of the provincial Enoteca (official wine promotion body) of Trentino, will involve the city's main historic residences.

The Consorzio vini del Trentino (Consortium of Trentino's wines), which organises the event, aims not only to publicise the latest wines, but also - and above all - to educate people on conscious consumption through tastings guided by sommeliers who will help guests to grasp the aromas and flavours that make each label unique and unrepeatable.

The event will also be an opportunity to recall the commitment made by the Trentino Wine Consortium in the field of sustainability in support of environmentally friendly agricultural practices. Trentino is at the top in Italy for its commitment to sustainability, and in 2022 was awarded the prestigious "Wine Region Of The Year" prize by the international magazine "Wine Enthusiast".
