Vinous Icons: Miami Returns November 12-14 with Over 100 Benchmark Estates

Early-bird tickets are now on sale for three days of tastings, lunches, dinners and masterclasses.

MIAMI, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Early-bird tickets are now on sale for Vinous Icons: Miami, presented by Capital One, returning for its third edition on November 12–14, 2026. The three-day program brings together more than 100 leading estates from Argentina, Chile, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain and the United States for two walk-around tastings, five masterclasses and two collector's events.

The Icons Tastings will take place at Bloom at Jungle Island on November 13 and 14, beginning at 4:30 pm. Guests will taste hundreds of highly acclaimed wines and meet the winemakers and personalities behind the estates.

Education remains central to the program. The Friday masterclasses feature Vinous Editor Joaquín Hidalgo on the great wines from both sides of the Andes, while Editor Eric Guido leads a discussion on the emergence of the Pacific Northwest as an outpost of innovation. Saturday's seminars start with Guido's focus on Italian Sangiovese before moving stateside with a doubleheader from Founder Antonio Galloni: exciting new projects from Sonoma County followed by a deep look at Napa Valley's riveting 2023 Cabernet Sauvignons.

Two collector's events hosted by Galloni anchor the opening days. The program begins November 12 at Klaw with a Collector's Dinner: La Festa del Barolo at Vinous Icons, featuring Elio Grasso, Paolo Scavino and Vietti, with guests invited to share bottles from their own cellars. On November 13, Proprietor Charles Philipponnat leads a Collector's Lunch at Le Jardinier built around a vertical tasting of Philipponnat's iconic Clos des Goisses, culminating with some of the last remaining bottles of the epic 1980.

"Miami is one of the most dynamic wine markets in the world. Vinous Icons gives guests an incredible opportunity to explore a stunning array of wines while forging meaningful connections with the people who make them," said Galloni. "Every estate here is exceptional; every wine is worth discovering."

Event passes are available at Early-bird pricing for a limited time. Attending estates are subject to change. Full schedule and tickets are available at vinous.com.
