Gourmet aperitif at sunset at the Ragogna Castle
There is a place in Ragogna from which the gaze sweeps over the course of the Tagliamento river and the morainic hills of Friuli: the San Pietro Castle, an ancient fortress that dominates the valley. It is here that the Pro Loco Ragogna APS has created Note di Gusto - Tramonto in Castello, an evening that combines food and wine, panorama, and music at sunset.
The heart of the event is a limited tasting journey: local products reinterpreted in a contemporary style, paired with a selection of regional wines and beers. Among the offerings by Pro Loco, the Ragognocco, the vegan sandwich Ragovega, and the Btc Burger stand out, in a menu that plays with Friulian tradition and reinterprets it creatively.
The atmosphere is curated in every detail: the sunset aperitif opens the evening, accompanied by live jazz music (in 2025, the Uboot Organ Jazz trio) and spectacular shows like the fire-eater. From the later hours, the party continues with retro vinyl from the DJ and a cocktail bar with creative drinks paired with the dishes, to end the evening lightly under the castle walls.
Born in 2025, Note di Gusto has already become one of the most evocative events of the Ragogna summer, capable of enhancing the Ragogna Castle as a setting for quality events. Promoted by Pro Loco Ragogna APS with the Municipality of Ragogna, it is proof of how a village in central Friuli can transform its historical and landscape heritage into a refined food and wine experience.
For 2026, Note di Gusto - Tramonto in Castello returns with its 2nd edition, scheduled for June 20 at the San Pietro di Ragogna Castle. The evening will feature the proven formula: sunset aperitif, limited gourmet tasting journey, regional wines and beers, live music, and entertainment. The detailed program will be announced by Pro Loco Ragogna.
The detailed program for the 2nd edition will be announced by Pro Loco Ragogna in the weeks prior. Based on the inaugural edition, the evening includes opening around 7:30 PM with the sunset aperitif and the gourmet tasting journey (with dishes like Ragognocco, Ragovega, and Btc Burger), paired with regional wines and beers; followed by live music, scenic shows, and, later in the evening, a DJ set and cocktail bar. The tasting journey is limited and requires mandatory reservation: information on the Pro Loco Ragogna website.

Admission and prices: the tasting journey is limited and requires mandatory reservation (in 2025, a fee of €35).
