Life of Wine 2023

Life of Wine is the annual event that offers old vintages for tasting. Over 300 labels and 200 old vintages.

Producers from all over Italy bring the latest vintages and at least two old vintages of their most representative labels to the tasting tables.

Now in its 12th edition, this event will take place on October 15 in Rome at the Hotel Villa Pamphili

A journey through time to understand how wine evolves, refines and completes itself.

The format remains unchanged: each company present at its tasting counter will bring at least one label of at least two older vintages in addition to the vintage on the market, thus giving those present the opportunity to immerse themselves in numerous and intriguing micro verticals and to savor the evolution of some great Italian wines. In addition to this it will also be possible to taste other labels on the market, to have an exhaustive picture of the production of each single reality.

Participants, if they wish, will also be able to purchase some labels, the price of which will be displayed on each company counter.

From 10 to 13.30, entry will be reserved for registered sommeliers (entrance cost 25 euros), the press and operators. The latter will be able to request accreditation which will be valid only once confirmed by email by the organization.

From 13.30 to 19, however, the opening will also be held to the public. The entrance ticket will be 35 euros and will allow the tasting of all the wines present.

Life of Wine is an event conceived by Studio Umami (www.studioumami.com) and Roberta Perna Comunicazione Enogastronomica (www.robertaperna.com), agencies in Florence specialized in communication and organization of food and wine events. Since 2019 they have made use of the precious collaboration with the journalist Maurizio Valeriani, director of the Vinodabere magazine (www.vinodabere.it), called to strengthen the selection of companies.

The numbers that have accompanied the event over the years testify to an exponential growth in terms of participation and quality of the public: the last edition saw the presence of 73 wineries from all over Italy and 750 entries, of which 300 sector operators and over 100 representatives of the specialized press.
