Gioielli in Fermento is a competition open to professional goldsmiths, designers, as well as established and emerging jewelry artists. The competition consists of creating and exhibiting a unique piece of jewelry inspired by a specific theme. The theme changes every year, but is always related to the world of wine.  The results are an impressive array of color, forms, and concepts that are unique to Gioielli in Fermento. 
The opening will take place on Thursday, October 20th at 6pm. During this time, Torre Fornello, a winery estate based in Valtidone on the border between Emilia, Lombardy and Piedmont Italian regions, will offer a tasting of their finest wines.

About Torre Fornello, Italy:
Enrico Sgorbati has been in charge of the Torre Fornello family winery since 1992. The first vintage was produced by Torre Fornello in 1998. The winery is focused on high quality production utilizing  native vines, and is located in Valtidone, the geological area of “old red soils”. It is here that nature created lands with a climate ideal for the vines that have been cultivated since ancient roman times.
The winery cultivates its vines partly under a biological scheme and partly under a low environmental impact program which is both beneficial for the countryside and the health of the population.
