Swing Experience 2026, a new chapter: Antonio Faravelli is “on board” with his wines

On Saturday, November 14, 2026, the Villa Paradiso Golf Club will host a new stop on the Swing Experience 2026 tour, an event dedicated to golf enthusiasts that promises to transform a day on the green into an experience centered on sports, friendship, and Italian culinary excellence.
Located between the Adda River and a wooded hill, just twenty minutes from Milan and Bergamo, the club offers a captivating natural setting, ideal for an event that combines athletic competition, relaxation, and camaraderie.
Adding even more interest to the event will be the presence of Antonio Faravelli, a winemaker from Montù Beccaria—in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese region—and the driving force behind Cantine Vitea. A connoisseur of the world of wine and a great golf enthusiast, Faravelli will bring his expertise and his winery’s wines to the course—an authentic expression of a region with a long winemaking tradition.
His participation represents a natural convergence of two seemingly different worlds, yet united by values such as passion, dedication, respect for nature, and the pursuit of quality. Golf, just like viticulture, requires patience, sensitivity, and a deep understanding of the territory.
The Swing Experience program features a Stableford-format tournament across three handicap categories, accompanied by numerous special contests, prize drawings, giveaways, and dedicated tasting sessions. This format is designed to engage participants not only on a competitive level but also through opportunities to meet and connect.
Of particular significance will be the space dedicated to the wines of Cantine Vitea, which will help highlight the connection between sports, the local area, and wine culture. It’s an opportunity to introduce the wines of the Oltrepò Pavese region to an audience of enthusiasts, in an environment where the pleasure of the game goes hand in hand with the joy of discovery.
For Antonio Faravelli, who has always been deeply connected to his homeland, golf represents not only a passion for the sport but also an opportunity to build relationships and share experiences. His presence at the Villa Paradiso Golf Club demonstrates how wine can become an important ambassador for the region even outside traditional food and wine contexts.
Among the most anticipated aspects of the event is the chance to qualify for the international final of the Swing Experience, scheduled for February 19–22, 2027, in Málaga, on Spain’s Costa del Sol.
November 14 promises to be an event that goes beyond a simple golf tournament, transforming into a true experience of sports, fine dining, and camaraderie.
