Vinifera, A Journey Through the Flavors, Wines, and Traditions of the Italian High Lands

Over 100 Winemakers and Breweries from the Alpine Arc and Islands

Vinifera 2025 will be an opportunity to discover and taste products from more than 100 winemakers from across the Alpine region – from Austria to Switzerland, Italy to Slovenia – and from several small Mediterranean islands, including Pantelleria, Ischia, Ustica, Giglio Island, and Elba Island.

Additionally, a rich selection of farm breweries and ciders from the Alpine territories will be present, thanks to the collaboration with the Pommelier and Cider Tasters Association (APAS).

Ancient Seeds and Rediscovered Traditions

This year, Vinifera also shines a spotlight on those dedicated to preserving agricultural biodiversity: Rete Semi Rurali and Coltivare Condividendo will be key players in a special area focused on seed exchange and the promotion of ancient and forgotten fruit and vegetable varieties.

Vinifera: A Gathering for Sharing, Education, and Sustainability

Vinifera is not just a fair; it’s a place for sharing, where producers and consumers meet face to face. As Manuela Barrasso, president of the Centrifuga Association, which organizes the event, states: “Vinifera is a space for sharing, education, and conviviality. We want to bring back attention to artisanal production and sustainable agriculture because wine and food are extraordinary tools to explore the Alpine world and its unique qualities.
