Fiera di u Vinu

Founded in 1989 in Luri, the legendary Fiera di u Vinu is back for another edition.

On the program for this 2024 vintage are the fundamentals: more than 60 Corsican winemakers, the best chefs, sommeliers and producers from here and abroad.
There will also be conferences, masterclasses and events for the whole family.
And because wine is a story of women, men and terroirs, it was obvious for us to make this a travelling fair, as close as possible to the island's many wine-growing regions.

So, on May 11 and 12, 2024, we'll be setting down our barrels in L'Ile-Rousse.
2025 - Heading south to Corsica
2026 - Back to Luri in Cap Corse

3 days of celebration: terroir, ecology and Corsican wine

Stalls open at 10:00 am, children's area: Donkey rides, games and entertainment
