"Calici di Stelle" 2015 in San Martino sulla Marrucina

"San Martino borgo di... vino". Every year the village of San Martino renews the link between its wine, its land and its craftsmen. It is a real event based on wine and the culture of the area from which it is generated, to create something unique: hundreds decorations, including banners and antiques scattered through the streets in every corner, all illuminated by candlelight supported by large wrought iron tripods. Walking along the old town you will have the opportunity to be entertained by various points of music listening or to stop to admire street artists or craftsmen creating live their works. There will be also flag wavers, tumblers, mimes, falconers, archers and many other characters. The real star of the evening, however, will be Wine: each visitor will be offered a crystal glass and a glass holder to wear – a kind of pocket –, to walk without leaving his/her own wine. Finally you will have the opportunity to reach the food and wine area, where, guided by the best regional sommelier, you can taste wine and local food specialities, enriched by some of the best producers of oil and cheese in central and southern Italy. The exhibition, which will take place on August 1st from 19th until late at night, will bring together some historic Italian wineries like Marescialli (Abruzzo), Masi (Veneto), Mastroberardino (Campania).
