The freshly harvested grapes from the vineyard are inserted into a tub. After having washed the feet in a basin of water with flower petals, a group of people enter in the tub to start pressing grapes with the rhythm of folk music. The must is then inserted into a copper boiler, placed over a rudimentary oven, ready to start the cooking time. during the pressing time Brief explanations will be given on the history of this type of vinification and on the millennial history of cooked wine, whose origins date back to ‘ancient Rome.
Next step will be the plentiful banquet, where guests can taste foods prepared with ancient local recipes, which were used during the harvest period. After the banquet the folkloristic dances begin, in particular the “Saltarello marchigiano” and the guests, helped by the dancers, will be able to learn and enjoy this dance.
