"Festa dell'uva" - the Grape Festival in Pornassio - is back at the end of August!

In its 42nd edition, an annual important reference for wine producers, culinary professionals, connoisseurs and tourists who love good food and wine, the Grape Festival includes the "Upper Arroscia Valley Wine Review" with tasting of excellent wine led by FISAR Sommeliers.

This year, to better enjoy wine and food tasting, food booths will be open as early as Friday night.

The Grape Festival is a significant event for the entire Upper Arroscia Valley, Upper Impero Valley, and Upper Argentina Valley, where the Ormeasco vine is cultivated.

During the three days, August 26-28, musical attractions, abundance of food and wine, with tasting of traditional local dishes accompanied by an impressive selection of Pornassio’s Ormeasco D.O.C. wine, will delight fairgoers.

The Festival will be held in the picturesque setting of the Pornassio medieval castle.
