About De Gusto

De Gusto is the traveling tasting event that enlivens the streets of the historic center of Vastogirardi, in Alto Molise. With a tasting glass, you can walk through the medieval village, sampling wines from various wineries, amidst exhibitions by local artists, an artisan market, and a final concert at the foot of the Castle, in an evening that combines taste, art, and atmosphere.

A walk through the flavors of Molise

The De Gusto – Traveling Tasting event transforms the historic center of Vastogirardi, a medieval village in Alto Molise in the province of Isernia, into an evening food and wine route. Participants receive a traditional bag with a tasting glass and walk through the village streets, sampling wines from different wineries.
