ENOTICA_4th edition_The Festival of Wine and Sensuality

Three days in a highly aphrodisiac environment, entirely dedicated to the immortal combination of Wine and Eros

Tasting of organic and biodynamic wines and foods from all over Italy.

Cinema. Cabaret. Concerts. Shows. DJ sets.


The spring renews the appointment with Enotica, the festival of wine and sensuality, one of the most varied of the season, where sharing a glass of wine combines with music, art, poetry, in a meeting of pleasures, through a sensory journey that winds through the 100 underground cells of the famous Roman community center.

From March 14th to 16th, “Centro Sociale Occupato ed Autogestito Forte Prenestino”, the Roman space of social and cultural avant–garde, becomes the scene of a new “bacchanal”.

Confirming the line up of the previous editions, the program offers three days of concerts, exhibitions, performances and the products of 60 authentic vintners and farmers, passionate witnesses of the old message that combines the sweetness of wine with conviviality.

The protagonist is “Critical Wine”, ie of certified origin, which does not speculate on the price, which respects the ecosystem and that is not filtered nor diverted by mass industrial agricultural production.

Enotica enhances the products of the manufacturers of organic and biodynamic wine and food in meetings with consumers, in order to foster critical and conscious consumption, which requires knowledge of the products, the desire for transparency on prices, the care of the environmental impact.



Every sip will be a carrier of a story, every scent will lead us in a unique sensory journey.

An atmosphere and a timeless place, without rules, inhibitions, status and judgments, to reinforce the unbreakable bond between the human being and the earth, among wine, eros and freedom. Enotica is creation and re–creation. Surprising and tempting at every sip, every bite.

It is the smile of two lovers kissing in a corner, dancing in a whirlwind of emotions, is blurred vision, sped up heart, the roar of thousands of bottles uncorked, laughter, emotions of a moment, which are renewed every year. Enotica is joy of life beyond the crisis, beyond the conventions of a society governed by the logic of exploitation and the individual and sensory flattening.



Enotica was created by the experience of “Enoteca Forte Prenestino”, which in 2004 has begun its story from the first edition of “Land and Freedom/Critical Wine”, an initiative that had among its main creators the anarcho–oenologist Veronelli, with the ambitious aim to fight distribution chains, to rediscover the senses of taste and to imagine a virtuous circle of quality of environment, production and social relations.

Also this year, you can vote for the most “enotic” wine!

The promoters_ ENOTECA FORTE PRENESTINO_ Enoteca CSOA Forte Prenestino, was officially opened in 2008, but its path had just begun a few years earlier with the organization in 2004 and in 2006 of the two Roman editions of the so called “Critical Wine”. The “Fiere dei Particolari – Critical Wine” project was implemented in 2003, with the meeting between Luigi Veronelli, the anarcho–oenologist, and those movements sensitive to the problems of the earth, the environment and agriculture. The result of this meeting was the creation of a project that sees together producers and consumers against extensive and industrial agriculture, for the development of indigenous grapes and craft winemaking; transparency on prices and markups in the distribution chain. Among the proposals advanced by this movement: the catalog of self certification of land and freedom/critical wine, to say, the right/duty to indicate the origin of raw materials, their types, the methods of processing, preserving and the packaging used, so that the quality of the product can be judged before purchasing and the production chain can be known fully, the municipal designation of origin, so that the production and the origin of the raw material of each territory is guaranteed and certified by the mayor, in order to locating responsibilities regarding production relations, quality and product prices, the source price, ie the first price at which the producer sells his product before any other mark–up of the marketing chain, pursuing the above mentioned objectives through, above all, the direct relationship with manufacturers without intermediaries and with a continuity that lasts, in most cases, from the beginning of the project in itself.

Activities_Terra Terra takes part and is among the promoters of the initiative, a project of a self–organized market for local and organic producers, which is based on the principles of the “Land and Freedom/Critical Wine” movement, with a broader scope, which does not only concerns the production of wine, but the whole agricultural production, its derivatives and its processing, from oil to vegetables, from bread to cheese, salami, honey, hygiene and pharmaceutical products, completely natural and not tested on animals. Enoteca CSOA Forte Prenestino is a free space, a place of free conviviality, which in recent years has been given space to numerous musical and artistic events, in the broadest sense of the term, which have given a significant contribution and support to the above mentioned project. In addition, you can attend evening tasting of wines sold at the wine shop itself, presented by the producers themselves, that will tell to the bystanders the wonderful adventure of the birth of their wines, self–certifying in this way, through their stories and their own words, the originality and uniqueness of their products.
