Sagra dell'Uva
Address: tutto il centro storico - Cupramontana
One of the oldest festivals of wine or grapes in Italy (from September 23, 1928), has
been held for decades on the first Sunday of the month of October, and the preceding
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It celebrates not only the grape harvest but also the fertility
of the land, particularly important in this area rich in vineyards planted with Verdicchio vines.
of Dell’Uva derives from a rich and ancient heritage, encompassing traditions, culture,
economy and agriculture of the area, and has become a party for the inhabitants and also
draws thousands of people to Cupramontana for the days of the festival. The characteristic
elements of country folk are evident with a warm welcome: the traditional dances, including
the "Saltarello" (a local dance) performed by local folk groups, songs that were sung in the
fields during harvest time accompanied on various instruments including accordions and
concertinas. Il Palio Del Verdicchio is an annual competition held on the Saturday afternoon
where teams must tread grapes with their feet, just as was done in past centuries. The
teams represent the various production areas surrounding the town. The highlight of the
festival, held on the Sunday afternoon, is the Parade of Floats. Each parish (or quarter) of
the town and the surrounding areas have their own decorated wagon which follows a subject
of wine-making and the traditions of winemaking. Each year the theme varies, as affected by
the current environment, politics, social or historical events – the outcome is creative and
entertaining. The Food Stands, called “capanne” in Cuprense dialect, are designed for the
distribution of food and wine and give an opportunity to taste typical local cuisine. The Sagra
Dell’Uva in Cupramontana successfully combines music, entertainment, wine and food in an
authentic surrounding, and therefore is universally popular.
