Italian wine among “Legacy Icons”, “Classics”, and “New Voices” at “Opera Wine” 2026 by Ws
Italian wine is like a large art gallery, with a “permanent exhibition” of artist-producers who have made (and continue to make) history in their territories, an area where prestigious names are “displayed” that are now living classics, and a space reserved for “artists” who are more or less emerging or already partially established. “Legacy Icons”, “Classics”, and “New Voices”, in other words, to use the “classification” of “Wine Spectator,” which announced, from Vinitaly.Usa in Chicago, in recent days, the list of wineries that will be featured at “Opera Wine” 2026, the super tasting prologue to Vinitaly taking place in Verona on April 11, 2026.

Vinitaly.Usa, Italian wine “beyond” tariffs
Sometimes, as they say, “the devil isn’t as bad as he’s painted”. Or, in any case, for those in business, having faith in the future is almost a necessity. The fact is that in the US, which, in truth, until July, recorded a substantial stability in Italian wine imports, and where Vinitaly.Usa was held in Chicago, the sector seems to have returned with fewer concerns. Indeed, “there is a return to a positive atmosphere with a widespread feeling of a concrete reaction by producers, importers, and distributors to the turbulence of recent months. The perception expressed by the 250 exhibiting companies (20% more than last year) is unanimous: tariffs are no longer the dominant issue, and importers and distributors were more optimistic and willing to discuss sales programs, taste wines, and talk about new projects”, explains Veronafiere ...

“MetodoContemporaneo”, the observatory on art and wine
“A new perspective on the intertwining of contemporary arts, territory, and wine culture”: this is how MetodoContemporaneo presents itself, the first permanent Italian observatory on art and wine-growing landscapes promoted by the University of Verona with BAM! Strategie Culturali. It is a new tool for investigating, learning more about, and further disseminating a phenomenon that is widespread in Italy, where producers invest in art, with wineries designed by renowned architects or transformed, like vineyards, into “art galleries sui generis”. MetodoContemporaneo, “not just an archive, but a dynamic and interactive map of the most significant cases - about 60 throughout Italy - that invest in the relationship between art, wine-growing landscape, and community”, will hold its first scattered event on October 17 and 18: “MetodoContemporaneo. Itineraries through art, wine, and landscape”, in 14 wineries, which will open their doors with guided tours, free activities: from Alois Lageder to Ca’ del Bosco, from Castello di Ama to Castello di Perno, from Feudi di San Gregorio to Fontanafredda and Fondazione Mirafiore, from La Raia to Lungarotti, from Ottella to Planeta, from Rocca di Frassinello to Tenuta CastelGiocondo - Frescobaldi, from Tenute Lunelli - Carapace di Castelbuono to Vigne Museum.

More resources for promoting wine, and more besides. Minister Lollobrigida’s announcement
“We are working to include a substantial increase in the resources available to the Italian Trade Agency for the next three years in the budget. Together with representatives from the supply chain, we are planning a major promotional campaign for wine linked to the recognition of Italian cuisine as a UNESCO World Heritage” . Thus the Minister of Agriculture, Francesco Lollobrigida, to “Il Sole 24 Ore” at Vinitaly.Usa, at a time of great concern about Italian wine, especially in the US. The focus is therefore back on promotion, a strategy that appeals to the Italian Wine Union (Uiv). “Allowing Italian wine to intensify its presence in the United States and other promising countries, coinciding with an increasingly evident situation of difficulty in the sector, is, according to Uiv, the best possible reaction”.

Today, the estate covers 12 hectares, 3.6 of which are planted with Zibibbo vines, some of which are 80 years old. It is a wine-making and cultural project in which the Veneto-based Pasqua winery, led by Umberto Pasqua and his sons Riccardo, Alessandro, and Andrea, has decided to invest.
