NAPLES WINTER WINE FESTIVAL

2024 Wine festival sure to soar with top-flight honorees in food and wine

“For me, the wine will always reflect my family's work together—my brothers now, my father, grandfather and great-grandfather before. But it is also about what wine can bring to humanity that keeps me facing the thick and thin of winemaking.”

One of the most revered elements of the 24th annual Naples Winter Wine Festival, whose theme is Generosity in Bloom, is the selection of honorees representing the best of winemakers and culinary masters. For 2024, the two highly acclaimed persons at the heights of their respective careers are vintner Veronique Boss-Drouhin and Chef de Cuisine Paul Bartolotta.
