CALICI DI FUOCO 2026

 

SATURDAY, JUNE 27th: Our event "CALICI DI FUOCO" is back!

 

It will be a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the SUMMER SOLSTICE, a tradition historically accompanied by fire to light up the shortest night of the year and give extra strength to the sun.

All wines will be paired with selected food tastings. Duration: approx. 1h 30min. > Price: €25/person (RESERVATION REQUIRED)

 

9:45 PM – TRADITIONAL RITUALS connected to the Summer Solstice (the bouquet of herbs, walnut harvesting, the St. John's sailboat, and more) and lighting of the candles.

 

AT DUSK (approx. 10:00 PM) – LIGHTING OF THE BONFIRE. Following our tradition, we will then burn the weeds and the St. John’s Eve herb bouquet.

 

To follow: A toast around the fire.

 

The evening will be filled with music and drums.
