The new version of Gin Tabar celebrates the authentic taste of Romagna: the official launch will take place in Ravenna on November 19th.

A tribute to the land of Romagna, its aromas, its fruits, and its unmistakable tradition.

It is from this deep bond that Gin Tabar Pesca e Nettarina di Romagna IGP in Edizione Limitata is born, the new distillate with a Romagna soul signed by Casoni Fabbricazione Liquori , whose claim will be precisely “ the Gin that tastes of Romagna ”.

The result of a collaboration with the Consortium for the Protection of PGI Romagna Peaches and Nettarinas , the new product joins the Tabar Casoni Gin family, which already includes the classic, London Dry, Bergamot, PGI Vignola Cherry, and PGI Emilia-Romagna Pear versions.

The project celebrates one of the most iconic symbols of the Romagna summer, reinterpreting it in a contemporary way through the art of distillation. The new Tabar Pesca e Nettarina di Romagna IGP Gin will be officially presented on Tuesday, November 19, 2025 , in Ravenna, at the Mercato Coperto in Piazza Andrea Costa, 6. The launch press conference will take place at 5:30 pm, with the participation of Paolo Molinari , CEO of Casoni Fabbricazione Liquori , and other special guests. Following this, at 7:00 pm, there will be an invitation-only cocktail reception with tastings of the new gin, paired finger food, and a DJ set, for a multisensory experience that combines flavor, local tradition, and conviviality.

Harvested and processed fresh, the Romagna peach retains its organoleptic properties, giving the gin an intense, sweet, and enveloping aromatic profile. The result is an elegant and fruity spirit, combining Casoni’s liqueur-making expertise with the agricultural excellence of the Romagna region. Produced in just 500 numbered pieces, Gin Tabar Pesca e Nettarina di Romagna PGI is an exclusive limited edition, designed for the most curious palates and for those who wish to discover, in a single sip, the authentic taste of Romagna.

“With the new limited edition of Pesca e Nettarina di Romagna PGI, we wanted to pay homage to a land rich in flavors, know-how, and passion—values we deeply share,” says Manuel Greco, Trade Marketing Manager at Casoni Fabbricazione Liquori . “This gin is a tribute to Romagna, its fruits, and its authenticity: a spirit that embodies the sweetness of the land and the artisanal quality that has always distinguished Casoni. It is a creation born from the desire to express, through a spirit, the most authentic identity of our region and the strength of its agricultural excellence. We look forward to seeing you on November 19th in Ravenna , at the Mercato Coperto, for the official launch of this very fresh new product!”

November 30, 2025 AC Hotel by Marriott Turin | Via Bisalta, 11 Turin.

An event entirely dedicated to wine lovers, craft beer enthusiasts, those curious about the world of spirits, and anyone looking to discover new alcohol-free products. The Torino Drink Market , scheduled for Sunday, November 30th at the AC Hotel by Marriott Turin , is a meeting place for select producers and the public, where you can taste, discover, and directly purchase a selection of top-quality Italian and international beverages.

Created by Spiriti in Cantina , Torino Drink Market also takes on the tones of Christmas: a perfect opportunity to choose a different gift, made of authentic flavours and stories to tell, and discover the right bottles for holiday toasts.

Thirty producers—including winemakers, brewers, distillers, and artisanal beverage producers —will present their products for tasting, offering the public the opportunity to sample, discuss, and purchase directly.

From rediscovered native grape varieties to spirits made with local botanicals, to historic breweries and new ventures born from a passion: each product tells an authentic story, to be experienced and taken home as a gift with a soul.

Each producer will be present in person to share their vision of taste, with a focus on quality, sustainability, and local roots.

Langhe winemakers will be there, such as Cecilia Monte, Stefano Gagliasso, and Baudana Flavio, who interpret the classic Nebbiolo and Barbera with the finesse of small-scale production; historic Monferrato producers like Cascina Gilli, Poggio Ridente, and Roggero Vini, along with the solid cooperative Sei Castelli.

The horizon broadens with Galantéa and Lusitania Vini, who bring for tasting research labels from France, Spain and Portugal , and with George – Tre Qvevri, Turin ambassador of Georgian wines in amphora.

Special attention is given to women in wine and craftsmanship who unite terroir, inclusion, and creativity. Beatrice Cortese, Cecilia Monte, Gringhigna, Tenuta La Pergola, La Stellara, and Aimino Jyothi de L’erm are the protagonists of a viticulture that combines roots and innovation, sensitivity and contemporary vision.

Alongside the winemakers, a selection of independent producers of taste : the Campanian brewery Akudunniad, the historic brand Metzger1848, the artisanal spirits of Distillerie Bosso and CandeGIN, up to Mintriga, a young Piedmontese mint liqueur from Pancalieri.

There will also be space for new fermented drink cultures , with Melly’s Kombucha and TibiLab, and for the medicinal herbs of Yacamo, a Turin-based laboratory of herbal teas and botanical blends.

Completing the experience are the signature desserts from Pasticceria Capello and the gourmet offerings from Eredi Borgnino, perfect for those who love to give a taste experience.

Throughout the day, the public will be able to participate in masterclasses, guided tastings, talks, and experiences , to explore the different identities of the territories and learn to choose consciously.

The Torino Drink Market is a day for the curious, enthusiasts, and dreamers of taste: a place where every glass tells a story of Italy and every bottle can become a gift that will inspire.

The elegance of the Piedmontese denomination combined with the flavors of Emilian tradition to celebrate the meeting of excellence and territories.

Following the success of the first two events in Rome and Naples, the Consorzio Tutela Roero traveled up the Italian peninsula to Bologna for the third leg of “Roero in Tour,” the traveling project that brings DOCG wines to Italy’s major cities. The Consortium embarked on a journey dedicated to bringing Roero wines into contact with Italy’s major cities through a dialogue with the typical cuisine of each region. This time, it was time to delve into the heart of Emilia: Roero wines have conquered the Bologna scene, offering a high-profile sensory experience. This innovative format brought together leading industry experts, including the press, restaurateurs, sommeliers, and the finest interpreters of Italian wine for a unique opportunity for discussion, discovery, and connection.

The meeting in the Emilian capital provided another opportunity to highlight the enormous potential of the appellation, which unites the passionate stories of 258 members and the biodiversity of the terroirs of over 1,300 hectares of vineyards. A mosaic of hills, sandy soils, and microclimates that give rise to highly elegant wines, deeply rooted in the terroir and capable of expressing its every nuance.

The versatility of Roero DOCG is reflected in its five styles. Roero Rosso , an elegant expression of Nebbiolo grown on the Roero sands, and its more complex and long-lived Riserva embody the depth and finesse of the hilly soils. Roero Arneis , the denomination’s signature white, combines freshness and aroma, while Roero Arneis Riserva —introduced in 2017—exhibits structure and surprising aging potential. Completing the picture is Roero Arneis Spumante , which, with its vivacity, interprets Roero’s dynamic and contemporary personality in a modern key.

“Roero in Tour is our way of promoting the wines of the denomination and strengthening their awareness through targeted activities,” underlines Massimo Damonte, President of the Consorzio Tutela Roero. – A shared growth journey that highlights the personality of our wines, faithful to their origins and at the same time capable of interacting with the tastes and needs of today’s market.

Roots and research, elegance and authenticity: this is the message we continue to convey and which makes our denomination unique.”

With the Bologna event, the Consorzio Tutela Roero confirms its commitment to promoting the wines of the denomination, introducing them to new audiences and contexts of excellence. This journey promotes Roero as a UNESCO World Heritage Site , one of Piedmont’s most distinctive wine-growing and landscape regions, and will continue with the next stop in Milan before the end of the year.
