Goriano di Vino

Goriano di Vino: The village that becomes a winery

Goriano di Vino is a wandering food and wine tour that brings the historic center of Goriano Sicoli to life. This small town in the Subequana Valley, located in the province of L'Aquila in the heart of the Apennine Abruzzo region south of Sulmona, offers a unique setting. For one day, the village's medieval alleys, stone doorways, and quiet squares turn into a gourmet itinerary where the charm of ancient architecture meets the region's finest wines and culinary traditions.

A journey through wineries and flavors

The heart of the event is the wandering tour: as you stroll through the village alleys, you will encounter selected wineries offering quality tastings, paired with typical Abruzzese dishes. This marriage of wine and local flavors invites visitors on a slow-paced journey of pauses, encounters, and discoveries, all within a picturesque setting that celebrates the village's heritage and local identity.
