🌿 New Cultural Landscape on the Iter Vitis Route! 🍇

We are thrilled to welcome the Cappadocia region (Türkiye) to the Iter Vitis Cultural Route of the Council of Europe!
Renowned for its breathtaking rock formations, ancient cave dwellings, and rich winemaking heritage dating back millennia, Cappadocia adds a unique dimension to our shared journey through European viticultural culture.
With this new membership, Iter Vitis strengthens its mission to connect wine-producing territories that preserve, celebrate, and innovate around wine as a cultural identity and a vehicle for sustainable development.

Promoting Vermouth as a cultural ambassador means celebrating a unique European heritage—born from the meeting of viticulture, botany, and the art of transformation. More than an aromatized wine, Vermouth is a liquid story, a dialogue between nature and culture, technique and creativity. In each bottle, we find the essence of landscapes, the legacy of pharmacists and herbalists, the mastery of liquorists.

This vision is inspiring the creation of a new international cooperation between Italy, France, and Spain, aiming to create the European Vermouth Route under the aegis of Iter Vitis – Cultural Route of the Council of Europe. An initiative poised to become a reference point in the fields of cultural diplomacy and experiential tourism.

🍇 On February 6, 2025, in the frame of the historic Curia Julia at the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo we hosted an inspiring conference that celebrated wine as more than an agricultural product but as a vital element of Europe's cultural identity. Organized by Iter Vitis , in collaboration with the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo and Cantina Cincinnato, the event brought together experts from archaeology, anthropology, history and the wine industry to explore the deep connection between viticulture, history, and sustainable territorial development. 🌍
Highlights included:
✨ The official unveiling of Augusto Wine, produced from grapes cultivated in the Vigna Barberini at the Colosseum.
✨ Innovative projects like Venissa, preserving Venetian viticulture and promoting sustainable tourism.
✨ International perspectives, such as Israeli viticulture innovations and Moldova's rich history of vine domestication
✨ The Wine Stories exhibit at the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki, showcasing wine's enduring cultural legacy.
✨ The La Cité du Vin - Fondation pour la culture et les civilisations du vin virtual visit
The event underscored the potential of wine as a cultural ambassador, fostering responsible tourism, regional identity, and collaboration across borders.

A big thank to the The Phoenicians' Route - Cultural Route of the Council of Europe for inviting Iter Vitis to this amazing gathering in Marsala. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with seven Cultural Routes, share ideas, and explore exciting projects together during the : Innovation and Skills for Cultural Heritage event.

NEXT ROUTES, supported by the program, is all about boosting digital and creative skills for Cultural Routes. It’s inspiring to see how tools like gamification and digital innovation can make heritage more engaging and accessible for everyone — from visitors to local communities.

These five days of training and toolkit testing were a great chance to learn, collaborate, and build stronger connections. A special shoutout to speakers like Raffaele Vitulli from materahub and Alberto Samonà from the Colosseum Archaeological Park board for their valuable insights!

Excited to see how all this collaboration will shape the future of the Cultural Routes. Thanks again to everyone who made this event so special! 🚀

Moldova hosted three wonderful days of celebration to mark our 15th anniversary of certification: an international conference on cultural tourism connected to viticulture, the Iter Vitis Award, and our assembly with participants from thirteen countries, all set against the stunning backdrop of the Purcari winery in the Ștefan Vodă region.

Now, we eagerly await the voting results, featuring one of the most active countries in Iter Vitis: the European-spirited Moldova!
