The wine company bringing a taste of Italy to Bristol

By Jodie Welton  Wednesday May 22, 2024

“Wine is for everyone.” That’s the motto of Winesnvines, a Cardiff-based company comprised of three Italian sommeliers who are hosting a wine festival in Bristol on Sunday.

The passionate team promise to teach visitors about the importance of understanding the wine that you drink.

Offering exquisite Italian wine and cuisine at La Panza in Redcliffe, the event will be accompanied by live music from the band Lovely Weather.

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

Event coordinator Paola Di Bella said: “People think that wine tasting is very posh, and they lack confidence. This is the reason we made a wine fest for free so everyone can figure it out.”

Winesnvines hope to teach those in Bristol about wines from across Italy

Winesnvines has a specific ethos which say makes them stand out from the crowd.

They prioritise environmentally friendly production methods, targeting the pesticides which damage both the environments in which wines are produced, and our bodies too.

“If you drink with knowledge, you are more conscious and can taste this,” says Paola.

The group also prioritise the treatment of workers in the vineyards producing their wine, in addition to respecting the vine and the history that it carries.

With a shared Italian heritage, the group prize this, but also particularly their own personal areas of Italy, stretching across the nation.

Paola jokes that each member of the group thinks that the wine from their own hometown is the best in the world.

Winesnvines’ Wine Fest takes place at La Panza from midday on Sunday, May 26. Entry is free.
