The scent of must in the Irpinia village of Paternopoli for the next edition of “La Macenata”, scheduled for Friday 22 and Saturday 23 September, to celebrate the ancient ritual of grape pressing, a tradition that dates back a long time and continues to be present even today.

The event was born from the association of the same name that, every year, promotes the strategic plan of initiatives of the local gastronomic culture and the valorization of the varieties and denominations of the territory. Events and moments of meeting dedicated to the ancient local culinary traditions, the environmental and anthropological heritage that generates union with all the citizens and attracts wine tourists interested in coming into contact with the most authentic part of the Irpinia village.

The 2023 edition of "La Macenata" includes guided tastings, workshops, gourmet experiences, and meetings with some of the wine district's most representative producers.
