The Oltrepò village that becomes an open-air winery
Colle di Vino is the food and wine event that enlivens San Damiano al Colle, a municipality in the province of Pavia nestled among the hills of Oltrepò Pavese. For one evening, the historic center transforms into an open-air tasting route, where wine is the common thread for discovering local traditions and products.
The heart of the event is the large, widespread tasting: over 100 selected labels offer a complete overview of Oltrepò Pavese productions. With the tasting bag, visitors access the stations set up in the village and in the castle areas to sample:
What makes the experience even more authentic is the direct interaction with local producers, who share stories about their vineyards, vintages, and techniques from one of Lombardy's most important wine regions.
The wine is complemented by a program designed to turn the tasting into a true village festival:
San Damiano al Colle is a rural village in Oltrepò Pavese, a land of hills cultivated with vines south of the Po River. Colle di Vino is the ideal opportunity to discover its wine identity in a convivial and informal setting, just a stone's throw from the wineries producing the wines featured during the event.
The 2026 edition of Colle di Vino is confirmed for Sunday, May 31, in San Damiano al Colle, starting at 5:00 PM. The historic center and castle areas will host over 100 labels from local producers for tasting: Classic Method sparkling wines, reds from Croatina, Barbera, and Pinot Noir, aromatic whites, and traditional sweet wines. Accompanying the evening will be street food, stalls with local products, and a DJ set until late.
The event takes place on an evening in late May, starting at 5:00 PM.
San Damiano al Colle is reachable by car via the roads of Oltrepò Pavese, in the province of Pavia, near the border with Emilia. It is advisable to plan for a safe return journey after the tastings.
Access to the tasting stations is via the tasting bag. For information: Pro Loco San Damiano al Colle, tel. +39 348 743 6350.
