Bacco per Bacco is Turi's autumn tribute to its most celebrated wine: Primitivo. This is far more than a simple tasting—it's a complete immersion into Apulian wine culture, where the ruby-red nectar of the region blends seamlessly with the authentic flavors of local tradition. Throughout the streets of the historic center, history and modernity meet in an atmosphere of genuine conviviality. The event transforms Turi into a grand gastronomic journey where every stop tells a story: from historic wineries where the finest Primitivos are born, to bustling piazzas alive with tastings accompanied by bombette, warm focaccia, and hearty legume soups that warm the soul. Fragrant roasted chestnuts and typical Apulian sweets complete a culinary experience celebrating the perfect union of wine and local cuisine. Beyond the palate, Bacco per Bacco captivates the spirit with live music, art exhibitions, and the chance to discover local craftsmanship through themed stands. It's the ideal opportunity to understand how the Apulian sun, red earth, and generous vineyards create a product of world-class excellence, while rediscovering the magic of traditional country fairs where conviviality is the true star.
