Casaprota accende l’autunno: il 17 e 18 ottobre tornano i 'Sapori d’Autunno in Sabina'

The charming village of Casaprota, nestled in the heart of the Sabina area near Rieti, hosts the fourth edition of 'Sapori d’Autunno in Sabina' (Autumn Flavors in Sabina). The festival celebrates the autumn season and local traditions through a rich culinary journey, featuring food stands open for Saturday dinner and Sunday lunch, offering a festive gathering amidst the historic alleys and scenic views of the town. At the core of the gastronomic experience are traditional Lazio delicacies and Sabina DOP extra virgin olive oil. The menu highlights regional classics such as amatriciana, spicy 'strengozzi' pasta with garlic and wild mint ('perza'), arrosticini skewers, sausages, fried pizzas, bruschetta, and roasted chestnuts, paired with craft beers from the Rieti province and local seasonal products tied to the olive harvest and milling period. Alongside the gourmet offerings, the weekend features cultural entertainment: on Saturday evening, October 17, an astronomy session with telescopes will invite visitors to observe stars, planets, and constellations, all while discovering the historical heritage of Casaprota, from Palazzo Filippi to ancient village landmarks.
