Equipment, process control and digital solutions shape modern wine production decisions. Enolitech 2026 takes place from April 10 to 12 at Veronafiere in Verona and operates within Vinitaly as its technology and innovation hub.
Location and schedule for Enolitech 2026
The show runs across the Veronafiere exhibition grounds in Verona over three days from April 10 to 12. Co-location with Vinitaly allows visitors to combine technical supplier visits with broader market scouting in a single trip.
Industry focus and exhibitor mix
Exhibitors at Enolitech 2026 cover the full chain from vineyard systems to cellar equipment and hospitality service. The exhibition is organized into two experiential areas one for the wine sector and one focused on catering and restaurant solutions. Key categories on display include:
- Nursery materials and vineyard planting systems
- Harvesting and processing machinery
- Production lines for winemaking, bottling and packing
- Barrels, vats and storage solutions
- Packaging items such as labels, caps and bottles
- Software for vineyard management and cellar control
- Biotechnologies and processing aids
- Logistics, packaging and transport services
- Furniture and accessories for wineries and restaurants
- Refrigerated display and service equipment
This mix makes it possible to assess mechanical suppliers alongside packaging and service equipment in a single route.
Event format and experiential zones
Enolitech functions as a Technology and Innovation Hub within Vinitaly offering a sector-specific parcours. The two experiential areas are designed to show installed solutions, packaging workflows and service equipment in real settings, which speeds up technical evaluation and supplier shortlisting.
Practical tips for B2B prospecting at the show
Approaching Enolitech 2026 with a clear plan yields measurable outcomes. Actionable steps:
- Set technical and commercial priorities before attending and rank needs such as throughput, footprint and maintenance requirements.
- Preselect exhibitors by category and book meetings in advance. Focus on suppliers able to demonstrate equipment or to provide technical data sheets.
- Bring technical dossiers and a checklist of operational questions about energy use, spare parts availability and aftersales support.
- Capture photos and notes at each stand to build a comparison matrix useful for procurement decisions.
- Allocate time to the catering area if you are evaluating point of sale or service refrigeration solutions.
These measures turn stand visits into a structured sourcing process.
What to assess when evaluating machines or software
When reviewing machinery or software ask for specification sheets, maintenance schedules, spare parts lead times and evidence of scalability. For digital systems request integration examples with cellar management systems and demonstrations of data outputs relevant to traceability and process control.
