Vinous Icons: Miami Returns for a Third Amazing Year

Vinous Icons, an exceptional wine event, is making its much-anticipated return to Miami from November 12 to 14, 2026. This year's event, presented by Capital One, promises to be even grander than before, featuring more than 100 premier wine estates. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to engage with wines from renowned regions across the globe, including Argentina, Chile, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and the United States.

A Three-Day Wine Extravaganza

Over the course of three dynamic days, Vinous Icons will host a series of walk-around tastings, gourmet lunches, and engaging masterclasses. Specifically, attendees can look forward to two immersive walk-around tastings carried out at Bloom at Jungle Island on November 13 and 14, starting from 4:30 PM on both days. Participants will indulge in a diverse range of acclaimed wines and have the chance to meet the passionate winemakers and influential figures behind the brands.

Education remains at the heart of the Vinous Icons experience. The program features insightful masterclasses on Friday and Saturday, each led by well-respected editors in the wine industry. On Friday, Vinous Editor Joaquín Hidalgo will guide guests through the extraordinary wines from both sides of the Andes. Meanwhile, Editor Eric Guido will delve into the emergence of the Pacific Northwest as a hub of wine innovation.

The following day offers further engaging seminars, starting with Guido's focus on the versatile Italian Sangiovese grape. This will be followed by a double feature presenting new projects from Sonoma County, led by Vinous Founder Antonio Galloni. The day will culminate in an in-depth exploration of Napa Valley's alluring 2023 Cabernet Sauvignons.

Exclusive Collector's Events

In addition to tastings and seminars, Vinous Icons will host two collector's events that promise to be truly memorable. The kick-off begins on November 12 with the Collector's Dinner: La Festa del Barolo at Vinous Icons, hosted at Klaw. This unique dinner will feature renowned winemakers such as Elio Grasso, Paolo Scavino, and Vietti, creating a special evening where guests are invited to bring their own cherished bottles to share.

On November 13, guests are invited to attend a Collector's Lunch led by Proprietor Charles Philipponnat at Le Jardinier. This event will highlight a vertical tasting of Philipponnat's legendary Clos des Goisses, including some of the last remaining bottles of the celebrated 1980 vintage.
