Calici di Stelle 2025
From July 25 to August 24, many events, tastings and initiatives among history, culture and gastronomy
The Calici di Stelle event, promoted by the Movimento Turismo del Vino Toscana, returns from July 25 to August 24 with a series of initiatives across the region's wineries. A month of warm summer nights to be experienced discovering the territory and local excellence, starting with wineries and their wines. This year, MTV Toscana’s wineries have organized a program of events designed for wine lovers and younger audiences alike—perfect for families and tourists seeking unique summer evenings, with activities tailored to children as well.
Wine, stars, picnics at sunset and even Italian pizza nights. From Chianti Classico to the lands of Chianti, Montalcino, Montepulciano, San Gimignano, Val d’Orcia, and the Maremma coast to Carmignano, wineries across Tuscany have prepared unforgettable experiences. Expect sunset aperitifs, vineyard dinners, picnics, BBQ parties, tastings with professional astronomers, vineyard safaris for starry selfies, wine‑and‑scent pairings, and, in 2025, pizza nights thanks to a collaboration with AVPN (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana).
