Vinum: chef Federico Zanasi

Vinum’s formula is that of a city embracing its excellence and revealing it along the streets and through the squares.

Vinum is an event that brings together wine connoisseurs, gourmets and those who want to be passionate about the art and culture of the lower Piedmont region, being lulled by the beauty of the vineyards and hills that in 2014 Unesco recognized as a World Heritage Site.

Vinum is the opportunity to stroll through the streets of the city tasting the best wines of the area through food and wine tastings in the city’s iconic places.

A food and wine tour to discover the fine DOC and DOCG appellations of Piedmont.

AIS sommeliers, on hand throughout the evening, will be able to advise and guide in the choice of wines from bubbles, whites, rosés, reds and aromatics.
