Wine & Art 2026 - 10th edition
On Monday 6 and Tuesday 7 July, wine and art come together to create an emotional and cultural journey aimed at leading tourists to discover the artistic and gastronomic heritage of the town of Caorle through local historical-artistic sites and local and national wine excellence.
The event arises from the collaboration between the Municipality of Caorle and Eleganzaveneta by Lionella Genovese, a wine marketing expert, with the goal of promoting the “Gusta Caorle” project.
This year, there will be over 150 wines available for tasting, with the presence of producers and the opportunity for direct purchase.
The tenth edition will dedicate ample space to agri-food, hosting the Small Local Productions (PPL) of the Veneto Region with three products: olive oil, honey, and Venetian truffle.
Through Caorle Wine&Art, the city becomes the spokesperson for local and Venetian excellence: not only the great wines of the most important denominations and the productions of Tipicamente Caorlotto but also local specialties, tradition, and enhancement of the territory at 360°. As with wine, participants will be able to taste all the specialties present, and at two moments, it will be possible to taste the risotto with Venetian truffle thanks to the presence of chef Graziano Manzatto, ambassador of Italian cuisine abroad.
Guests of this tenth edition will include two notable national journalists: Leonardo Romanelli, a food and wine critic, writer, and performer sommelier, contributor to Il Gusto of Repubblica and Gusto Critico, and Salvo Ognibene, journalist and sommelier for CiboToday, Identità Golose, Slow Wine, and Touring Club.
The journalist Danilo Poggio, podcaster of I nuovi mosti and collaborator of La Cucina Italiana, Le Guide di Repubblica, and Deejay.it, will introduce the authorities at the inauguration and will conduct the talks of the event with guests and protagonists.
The initiative “Cicchettando” will also be reprised to showcase Caorle's gastronomic specialties. Participants will receive a map of the central venues and can discover, among alleys and small squares, the famous cicchetti prepared in respect of the local and Venetian culinary tradition.
