The first edition of a wine tasting in the town of Bolzano dates back to March 1896, when at the Torgglhaus tavern more than 100 wines were tasted and compared. That original Spring Wine Market has become famous as Bolzano Wine Tasting over time. The enogastronomical event takes place every year in March or April, presenting 40 of the most renowned wineries of South Tyrol.
Since almost a century, the multi-day event, now organised by the "Bolzano Wine Tasting" working group, has been housed in the venerable walls of Mareccio Castle. This building dating back to the 12th century is located along the Lungotalvera Promenade near the Talvera Meadows, a recreation area, and not far from the historic town with the Bolzano Arcades. At the Bolzano Wine Tasting or Bozner Weinkost, you can taste more than 200 selected white, rosé, red and sparkling wines.
They come from the cultivated areas between the Oltradige around Appiano, the Valle Isarco and the Valle dell'Adige. The entertainment programme, however, includes live music and a wide culinary offer. Reservation required - tables are reserved for a maximum of three hours from the arrival time specified in the reservation: info@bolzano-bozen.it.
