The Sagra del Cesanese in Serrone is an unmissable event for lovers of Lazio wine and the region's food and wine heritage. From August 20-23, 2026, this charming Lazio village transforms into a hub of tastings and encounters dedicated to one of the territory's most distinctive grape varieties: Cesanese. The star of the festival, this wine with its bold aromatic notes and robust character, is presented in all its complexity through sensory experiences curated by the finest local wineries. The event is far more than a celebration of a product—it is a genuine narrative of the territory itself. Every glass of Cesanese tells the story of Lazio viticulture, the patient work of vintners, and the identity of a community that has cultivated these vines with dedication for centuries. Stands scattered throughout the village streets create an enogastronomic route where wine meets local cuisine, with dishes specially designed to showcase perfect pairings and allow visitors to discover the many facets of Cesanese. Music, meetings, and moments of conviviality characterize the atmosphere—that authentic spirit of village celebrations where hospitality is the true protagonist. The Sagra del Cesanese thus offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in Lazio wine culture, uncover the secrets of a centuries-old tradition, and experience the genuine hospitality of southern Lazio.
