Pizza and Wine: Italy’s Taste Team at Vinitaly 2025

 

Neapolitan pizza meets the best of Italian wine at the ultimate wine event: Vinitaly 2025. The Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana (AVPN) is ready to write a new chapter, bringing together two icons of Italian culture.

Is pizza only meant to be paired with beer? Maybe once, but today’s public is eager to explore new flavors and combinations. That’s exactly how the “Pairing Pizza Napoletana” project was born, developed by AVPN together with AIS Italia. It’s a practical guide to pairing Neapolitan pizza with Italy’s finest wines. And what better place to launch it than Vinitaly?

Several events are planned to celebrate the best of Italian taste. The first is scheduled for Saturday, April 5 at 7:00 PM: a special tasting evening organized by the Campania Regional Agriculture Department, set in the beautiful Courtyard of the Tribunal. It will be a true celebration of Campania’s food culture, with local wines paired with the iconic Neapolitan pizza — the universal symbol of sharing and togetherness.

The celebrations continue on Monday, April 7 at 10:30 AM at the Sommelier Lounge of AIS Italia (Pavilion 10 – 1st floor) with the official presentation of the “Pairing Pizza Napoletana” project. On this occasion, Antonio Pace (AVPN) and Sandro Camilli (AIS Italia) will officially sign the document that sets the guidelines for pairing pizza and wine.

The project, coordinated by AIS Campania, will involve every Italian region, telling their wine stories through pairings with Neapolitan pizza. A training and promotional journey that brings together AVPN’s Brand Ambassadors and AIS’s Regional Presidents to showcase two of Italy’s greatest treasures.
