Wine Village – A Taste of Italy in Every Sip

Step into the most atmospheric part of the Little Italy Festival.


Wine Village is where Italy’s legendary wine culture comes alive — right in the heart of the festival.

 

Dozens of regional wine booths, authentic food pairings, live music, and the stories behind every glass.

 

Whether you're a curious beginner or a seasoned wine lover, this is your chance to explore Italy like never before — one region, one bite, one sip at a time.

Wine Bottles

Veneto Region

Stylish and social, Veneto reflects the charm of Venice and the Dolomites. Locals gather in osterie to enjoy an ombra (a “shadow” — their poetic word for a glass of wine) alongside cicchetti. This region invites you to sip lightly and linger long.

​

Typical Wines:

  • Soave – A dry white with delicate citrus and almond notes. Crisp, elegant, and ideal with antipasti.

  • Valpolicella Classico – Light-bodied red with bright cherry and herbal tones. Versatile and refreshing.

Vineyard

Tuscany Region

Golden hills, rustic villas, and bold hospitality define Tuscany. Here, wine is opened like a conversation and shared under the sun with hearty food and laughter.

​

Typical Wines:

  • Chianti Classico – Sangiovese-based red with cherry, herbs, and bright acidity. A Tuscan staple.

  • Vernaccia di San Gimignano – Crisp white with mineral tension and citrus aromas. Pairs well with vegetables and seafood.

Vineyard

Puglia Region

The heel of Italy is sun-drenched, generous, and rustic. In Puglia, wine is a daily joy, and food is prepared from the heart.

​

Typical Wines:

  • Primitivo – Bold and fruit-forward with notes of blackberry and spice. Smooth and approachable.

  • Negroamaro – Earthy, deep red with dried herb notes. Excellent with grilled dishes and aged cheese.

Oltrepò Pavese

A lesser-known region with major talent. Oltrepò Pavese combines small-scale production with sparkling elegance and authentic charm.

​

Typical Wines:

  • Metodo Classico Spumante – Traditional method sparkling with fine bubbles and brioche notes. Refined and festive.

  • Bonarda – Semi-sparkling red with ripe cherry and a rustic finish. Unique and expressive.

Green Grapes on Vine

Piemonte Region

Piemonte values patience — both in its slow food philosophy and in its cellars. It's a region of deep tradition, generous hospitality, and wines that reward attention.

​

Typical Wines:

  • Barbera d’Alba – Juicy red with vibrant acidity and notes of plum and spice. Pairs beautifully with cured meats.

  • Dolcetto – Soft tannins, wild berry notes, and a dry, food-friendly profile.

Vineyard

Campania Region

From Naples to the Amalfi Coast, Campania’s volcanic soils and Mediterranean breezes yield bold wines and passionate food traditions.

 

Typical Wines:

  • Falanghina – Floral, citrusy, and refreshing. A lively white for warm evenings.

  • Aglianico – Powerful, structured red with smoky black fruit. Built for grilled meats and strong cheeses.

Cluster of Grapes

Sicily Region

Sicily’s wines reflect its dramatic geography and layered history. Whether grown on volcanic slopes or coastal plains, they deliver character and complexity.
 

Typical Wines:

  • Nero d’Avola – Deep and rich with dark fruit and a hint of spice. Bold but balanced.

  • Grillo – A crisp white with tropical fruit, herbs, and subtle salinity. Refreshing and seafood-friendly.
