(SeaPRwire) – The winery from Verona discusses innovation using artistic language and presents a comprehensive schedule of city-wide events and collaborations
VERONA, Italy, April 2, 2026 — Following its announcement as a partner for the 2026 Verona Summer Theater festival, Pasqua Wines, the esteemed Verona-based winery known for its distinctive award-winning wines, is reinforcing its strong ties to wine, culture, and its home city at Vinitaly, a premier global exhibition for wine and spirits, scheduled to take place in Verona from April 12 to 15, 2026.
The winery will be actively involved both at the exhibition venue and throughout the city, connecting with diverse audiences through a carefully curated series of experiences that merge viticultural expertise with contemporary artistic expression.
Central to this initiative is “Sips of Art. When Fine Wine Meets Art,” a multi-day program commencing on April 10 with the public unveiling of Resonance, an immersive installation by artist Sara Ricciardi at the Palazzo Maffei Museum. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore the interplay of architecture, sensory experience, and narrative while sampling select Pasqua wines, including 11 Minutes Rosé and Cecilia Beretta Valpolicella Superiore Mizzole.
On the same evening, Pasqua is collaborating with Italian fashion designer Antonio Marras for “I Fiori”, a special event that unites fashion and wine. This event will feature a curated showcase of iconic designs alongside 11 Minutes Rosé and Cascina San Vincenzo Valpolicella Ripasso.
During the weekend (April 11 – 12), Pasqua will host the third iteration of Book Tasting, an intimate series of discussions that pair literature with wine. Held at the Galleria d’Arte Moderna Achille Forti, this program will bring together authors and wine connoisseurs to delve into the cultural narratives underpinning both fields in an engaging and accessible manner.
Throughout the weekend, Pasqua will offer guided tours and tastings at the Scavi Scaligeri. Visitors can explore the beautifully preserved site and the Winter Games photography exhibition, followed by a tasting of PassioneSentimento Rosso and Cecilia Beretta Soave Brognoligo, guided by members of the Pasqua team.
Pasqua is set to participate in two masterclasses at Vinitaly:
- Monday, April 13 – The winery will join a Gambero Rosso masterclass in Pavilion 9, Stand C16 (12:30 PM – 1:30 PM), titled “Passiti a confronto: Sangue d’Oro and the artisanal interpretations of a great wine of Pantelleria.” This session, led by Giuseppe Carrus, will focus on Sangue d’Oro, the winemaking project established by Carole Bouquet and integrated into Pasqua’s portfolio in 2025, alongside a selection of exceptional Zibibbo wines from Pantelleria. The tasting will highlight how producers are harmonizing traditional drying methods and heritage practices with contemporary winemaking approaches.
- Tuesday, April 14 – Sangue d’Oro will also be featured in a Grand Tasting in the Sala Argento at the Palaexpo (11:00 AM – 1:00 PM). This session, led by Ian D’Agata, Maddy Jimerson MS, and Andrea Gualdoni, and titled “From Pinot Noir to Monica, from Bellone to Cabernet Sauvignon, from Barolo to Amarone, via Germany and China”, will place the wine within a broad international context, offering trade attendees an opportunity to compare it against a diverse array of styles and regions.
