Vallagarina , with its wonderful vineyards, and Marzemino , with its ruby red color, the fragrances of wild berries, spicy and balsamic notes: the one between the Trentino valley that runs along the Adige south of Trento and one of the historical spearheads of Trentino enology, loved to the point of entering the libretto of Mozart's Dongiovanni, it is an absolutely inseparable union .
The task of celebrating it with dignity, bringing to the fore the winemakers who care for this vine with hard work and passion, is once again up to “ La Vigna Excellent. And it is immediately Isera ", an event organized by the Municipality of Isera, City of Wine, with the support of Trentino Marketing, the coordination of the Trentino Wine and Flavors Route, as part of the promotion of provincial wine events called #trentinowinefest, and the collaboration of the APT Rovereto and Vallagarina.
Scheduled from Thursday 9 to Sunday 12 September in Isera, an enchanting village in Vallagarina that is experiencing a great ferment in the food and wine sector, the event was born as a corollary of a truly unique event in Italy and in Europe, or the homonymous competition which has now come. to the XX edition . In fact, it is not the best wine that gets on the podium, but the best vineyard and therefore the winegrower who cared for it and raised it to the best, contributing not only to producing excellent grapes, but also to making the landscape of the valley extraordinary.
Alongside this original proposal there is a rich program of initiatives ranging from special menus to refined itinerant food and wine tastings in the company of the producers, up to the novelty of ebike tours , an activity that finds in Vallagarina an ideal environment to fully enjoy this type of experience. . The Agribus , which was so successful in the 2020 edition, is also back, with visits organized in total safety to the farms of Isera and its surroundings. Without forgetting another appointment not to be missed: the highly anticipated show by the Koinè company , to discover the town, its viticulture and its history, with the outline of theatrical workshops.
A curious “green” dinner under the stars should also be put on the agenda: a large table at which guests are asked to bring plates, cutlery and napkins with them to taste a dish resulting from the collaboration between the restaurateurs of the area. There will also be the agricultural market , also open during dinner to buy products directly from the farmers. Moreover, the musical breakfast at dawn with the producers is evocative , while the parade of vintage tractors will color the final day of the party dedicated to Marzemino with a vintage touch, which will end with a worthy party in the square and a dinner in the vineyard. .
The kermesse, as has become tradition, will be accompanied by A tutto Marzemino (tastetrentino.it/atuttomarzemino), scheduled from 2 to 12 September : a rich calendar of tastings, aperitifs, themed menus, visits to the cellar and vineyards, scheduled throughout the territory of the Trentino Wine and Flavors Route, to make known the characteristics and nuances of this extraordinary vineyard inside and outside Vallagarina.

Marzemino
The Marzemino vine represents one of the most interesting varieties of Trentino viticulture. Arriving in these lands when Venice dominated trade throughout the Adriatic, it is precisely in Vallagarina that, thanks to an ideal environment and a sub-continental climate, has grown to become the great wine of today. In particular, it is in the area of Isera and Ziresi that it manages to express itself at its best: it is precisely here that the Trentino DOC Superiore Marzemino is born, a wine that meets even higher quality standards than those of Trentino DOC
Ruby red in color, dark with purple hues, it has aromas and fragrances of wild berries with floral nuances of violet, mixed with slightly spicy and vaguely balsamic notes.
