Our story

Pass me the glass — and stay a while

Passami il Calice was born in 2023 in the old town of Venaria Reale, steps from the Royal Palace, as the wine-focused offshoot of Passami il Sale.

Behind the project is Edoardo Scavo, who turned his passion for wine into a place for tasting, selection and connection. Here wine isn't just a product: it's a story told label by label, experience by experience.

Burgundy walls and white stone, exposed beams, Edison bulbs, a checkerboard floor and bottle-green shelves with kraft-paper price tags: come in for a bottle, leave with a story.
