According to Tiqets, the “Most Innovative Venue” in Italy is the Tempio di Brunello di Montalcino

Tourism is becoming more and more an experience to live and enjoy. And, especially in Italy, tourism wins as it links multiple aspects, ranging from food and wine to history, tastings and culture. They often intersect and cross each other in actual “food and wine hubs”, as Roberta Garibaldi, at the helm of ENIT - National Tourism Agency, and one of the leading experts in food and wine tourism in Italy, defined them. These include . “Il Tempio del Brunello di Montalcino”, which opened just over a year ago in one of the most famous and most visited wine villages in the world, created and curated by Opera Laboratori, thanks to the collaboration between the Brunello di Montalcino Consortium, Municipality of Montalcino and Archdiocese of Siena - Colle di Val d’Elsa - Montalcino in the ancient Sant’Agostino complex, in the heart of the city.
