Vandra Truffle Festival
A historic July festival dedicated to the black summer truffle of the Vandra Valley
About Vandra Truffle Festival
The Truffle, Gold of the Vandra Valley
The Vandra Truffle Festival is held in Vandra, a hamlet of Forlì del Sannio, in the province of Isernia. This territory in upper Molise is particularly suited to the harvest of black summer truffle, which here becomes the absolute protagonist of a now historic food and wine festival.
A Menu Entirely Featuring Truffles
The heart of the festival is the convivial dinner based on truffles: truffle bruschetta, truffle tagliatelle, truffle polenta, truffle sausage, fior di latte with truffle, and Miranda focaccia. A gastronomic journey that enhances the authentic flavors of Molise peasant cuisine and the precious local tuber.
A Tradition Attracting Hundreds of Visitors
Organized by the Circolo Valle del Vandra, the festival is over twenty-five years old and has become a regular fixture of the Molise summer. Each edition attracts hundreds of gourmets, drawn by the quality of the local truffle and the genuine atmosphere of the village festival.
