The Banca del Vino in Pollenzo is a unique institution dedicated to preserving Italy’s rich wine heritage. Created with the support of the Slow Food movement, it promotes biodiversity and traditional winemaking practices. Housed in the historic cellars of the former Royal Agency of Pollenzo, it safeguards thousands of bottles from outstanding Italian wineries. Its mission is to preserve the memory of wine and pass on Italy’s oenological culture to future generations.

The Banca del Vino maintains close ties with the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo. Founded by Slow Food, the university trains future leaders in sustainable food systems and gastronomy. Together, they embody a vision that connects quality, territory, and environmental responsibility. The Banca del Vino serves as a meeting place for producers, researchers, and wine enthusiasts from around the world. It plays an important role in promoting Italy’s gastronomic and wine heritage internationally.

In Pollenzo, wine, culture, and education come together to celebrate the excellence and diversity of Italian traditions.
