also other wine cellars from nearby towns have partecipated: Maria Cuomo, with "Furore", Episcopio and Sammarco wine cellars.

Wine tasting has been offered together with some refined local products: the caponata, cheese seasoned in lemon leaves, cheese with honey and lemon peel, tramonti typical cold cuts meats, the ravioli pasta stuffed with lemon, the "cake of the sun" by Sal De Riso, the local liqueurs by "Tentazioni", among these the "concerto" whose recipe was first experienced in S.
