The Italian Trade Agency has announced the launch of Italian Wine Week, a citywide retail initiative taking place across the New York Metropolitan Area from October 12 to October 25, 2026. The two-week campaign brings together more than 100 wine retailers across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and Jersey City to highlight the variety, heritage, value, and excellence of Italian winemaking.
Italian Wine Week serves as the public-facing gateway to Vinitaly USA, the flagship international exhibition of Italian wine taking place at Pier 36 on October 26 and October 27, 2026. While the Pier 36 event remains an industry-only gathering for trade and media professionals, Italian Wine Week extends that focus out to neighborhood bottle shops where consumers buy their wine every day.
