The appointment with the “Vini Eroici” at Pitti Taste 2025 closed successfully.
Let’s talk about heroic viticulture, an important event in the journey among the excellences present at the eighteenth Pitti Immagine food fair. A journey full of presentations: masterclasses, talks, meetings and tastings, which involved over 750 participating companies. This year, the three-day event in Florence also discussed heroic viticulture, in particular wines that come from volcanic vineyards, at high altitude, terraced, on steep slopes or overlooking the sea. A journey to discover and learn and taste, through the presence of twenty courageous winemakers who grow vines in extreme situations, in atypical climates, save forgotten, disappeared vines, dare to adopt winemaking methods with refinements at high altitude, under the snow or at the bottom of the sea, unique wines. These heroic winemakers are the safeguard of their territories, a heritage for all.
