VinCanta
Seven evenings of wine, music, and flavors in the medieval village of Marcellano
About VinCanta
Marcellano, a village that sings of wine
Marcellano is a medieval village, part of Gualdo Cattaneo in the province of Perugia, nestled among castles and towers in the heart of Umbria's Sagrantino region. This is where VinCanta comes to life, a widespread wine festival that transforms alleys and squares into an itinerary of taste, music, and conviviality for seven evenings.
Local Wines
The absolute stars are the great Umbrian red wines: Montefalco Rosso and Sagrantino DOCG, along with other oenological nuances of the region. The tasting unfolds along a food and wine itinerary through the village alleys, with stops dedicated to traditional Umbrian dishes. Don't miss the "Sweet Corner", where local desserts are paired with Sagrantino passito.
Widespread Music
VinCanta doesn't have a single stage: the music is spread throughout the village, with folk groups and bands animating the evenings and creating a festive atmosphere along the streets. The surrounding landscape of the castles of Speltara and Simigni and the Rocca Sonora (Rocca dei Borgia) provides a picturesque backdrop to the event.
Why it's worth the trip
VinCanta is the ideal opportunity to discover an authentic village in inland Umbria and to taste Sagrantino directly in its land of origin, just a few kilometers from Montefalco and the Strada del Sagrantino.
VinCanta — edition 2026
