VERONA, Italy, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Building on more than a century of winemaking heritage and an unwavering commitment to innovation, Pasqua Wines, the Verona-based winery renowned for its iconic award-winning wines, announces its participation in a series of landmark events this June 2026.

Following the momentum traditionally set by Vinitaly each Spring, a curated calendar unfolds across key cities worldwide. From New York to Paris, from Milan and Verona to London, these appointments reflect the winery's ambition to share its distinctive voice - rooted in the Veneto and open to international dialogue - with audiences across leading wine, culinary and cultural scenes.

Riccardo Pasqua, CEO of Pasqua Wines, commented: "We are taking our wines and vision to some of the most important markets and audiences for us - from celebrations of Italian culture to contemporary gastronomy to artistic platforms. Each occasion is an opportunity to share what we believe: wine is a language that speaks across cultures, disciplines, and generations."

Italy's Republic Day Celebrations - 3 June, New York & 4 June, Paris

The Italian community came together for two consecutive editions of the Festa della Repubblica (Italy's Republic Day) -  first in New York on 3 June, then in Paris on 4 June. One of the most prestigious events in the Italian institutional calendar abroad, the Festa brought together diplomats, business leaders and cultural figures in tribute to Italian excellence. Alongside many of Italy's most celebrated brands, Pasqua Wines was honoured to have once again been invited as an official sponsor for both celebrations, reaffirming the winery's growing international presence and its ongoing commitment to promoting contemporary Italian culture worldwide.

PASQUA VIGNETI E CANTINE, founded in 1925, is a Veronese wine company owned by the Pasqua family, celebrating its first 100 years of activity. Internationally recognized as a producer and ambassador of prestigious wines from Italy's Veneto region, the company's ambition is to carry forward a century of winemaking expertise into the future through a renewed stylistic vision. Today, President Umberto Pasqua leads the company alongside his sons: Riccardo Pasqua, CEO, Alessandro Pasqua, Vice President North America, and Andrea Pasqua, Head of Business Development.
With the third generation actively involved in the company, Pasqua has evolved into the House of the Unconventional - a research-driven laboratory and a space for dialogue, where quality and creativity take center stage. In its centenary year, Pasqua has been selected by winemaker Charles Smith as the global distributor of the House of Smith portfolio, including K Vintners, Sex, and Real Wine, in which Pasqua also holds a minority stake. Also in 2025, the Veronese winery invested in the Pantelleria-based wine project of actress and international style icon Carole Bouquet, acquiring an ownership stake and combining enological vision with the preservation of the island's cultural heritage.
