“Tastings by Vinexpo” offers an unprecedented programme of tastings during Vinexpo week, which seeks to provide a quality setting in which new products can be effectively presented.
The well-known tasting stars will be there: Michel Rolland, Alex Heinz, Giovanni Bietti, Tim Atkin (MW) and many more will be giving Master Classes over the 5 days of Vinexpo. “Tastings by Vinexpo” will also be the venue for tasting outstanding wines such as Tenuta Ornellaia, the 2010 vintage of Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux and the 2009 vintage of Union des Grands Crus de Chablis. Something quite new for many will be the Master Class on Saké, a presentation of wines made by French winemakers outside France and tastings of Turkish wines, wines involving the “Tannat” grape variety from Madiran in France and Uruguay, and 16 of the best Riojas.
