Vini e Sapori al Borgo

A night of taste in the historic village of Spinazzola

Vini e Sapori al Borgo is the food and wine event that transforms the historic center of Spinazzola, in the heart of the Murgia region (Puglia), into a grand open-air tasting trail. For one summer evening, the ancient cellars, old workshops, and disused rural spaces of the village come back to life: local food and wine producers set up their stalls along the alleys, offering visitors wines, typical products, and samples of local peasant traditions.

A journey through cellars, alleys, and traditions

The public explores the village, moving from cellar to cellar with glass in hand, on an itinerary that blends gastronomy, culture, and the rediscovery of urban heritage. The offerings include Murgia wines, local cured meats and cheeses, bread, and baked goods, alongside specialties that reflect the agricultural vocation of Spinazzola. The event is more than just a food market: the route features folk music, traveling performances, and moments dedicated to local ethnographic traditions, often accompanied by projections and installations that highlight the palaces and churches of the historic center.

Organization and local roots

The event is organized by the Pro Loco Torre e Pino of Spinazzola (a member of UNPLI), with the involvement of local associations and the support of entities committed to promoting the Murgia region. Created to showcase local food and wine production and the identity of the village, it has become one of the most anticipated summer evenings for the community and visitors alike. The 2025 edition, the eleventh, took place on Sunday, August 10th, during the night of San Lorenzo, drawing numerous visitors to the streets of the old town.
