20th edition of VinNatur Tasting: in Gambellara the best of wine according to nature

After the success of New York, the association of natural producers returns from 5 to 7 April 2025 with the historic event. New: the possibility of purchasing bottles for tasting.

VinNatur Tasting, the reference event for lovers of natural wine and professionals in the sector, is turning twenty. It will be held from Saturday 5th to Monday 7th April at the Margraf showroom in Gambellara (Vicenza).

The event, organized annually by the VinNatur Association , will welcome 180 winemakers from Italy and various European countries this year, ready to tell their stories with tastings and meetings dedicated to natural drinking.
Among the new features of the 2025 edition is the possibility for visitors to directly purchase the labels for tasting and to use shopping carts , available at the entrance to ensure the convenience of the visit. The tasting room, the space dedicated to journalists and importers, will also be renovated , set up to offer an optimal tasting experience in a quiet and private environment. The food area will offer a selection of quality products from small Italian businesses, to explore the gastronomic culture of the Bel Paese and support local artisans.
The Association recently celebrated another significant milestone : the success of the first overseas event, specifically in New York , which saw the presence of over 500 importers, journalists and industry professionals. “The American event was a dream come true for us,” said Angiolino Maule , President and founder of VinNatur. “The logistical complexities were significant, but the satisfaction of interacting with an audience as knowledgeable as it was curious repaid every effort. The success of the three masterclasses, already sold out a week in advance, increasingly demonstrates the growing interest in our sustainable approach to viticulture and the appreciation of natural wine in an international context like New York.”
Now the attention returns to Italy : “After the enthusiasm gathered in New York we are happy to return home – concludes Maule –, ready to welcome enthusiasts and professionals in a few months to celebrate wine according to nature and strengthen the deep bond with the territory”.
Tickets for VinNatur Tasting 2025 will be available on the Eventbrite platform starting February 1st at a cost of 30 euros for a day ticket and 50 euros for two days, including a tasting glass, a map of the producers and an event catalogue. All proceeds will go towards funding VinNatur’s research and training projects, as well as supporting charitable initiatives.
