The day of the saint?s celebration, people go to the vineyards, cross themselves in order to get helped by the saint and then gather, drink and dance with the music of gaida (aerophone) till late.
They say that long ago, during the celebration of the saint, a priest who did not accept these stories went to lop and eventually cut his nose.
