Wine Pleasures Workshops bring together small to medium sized wine producers who do not usually take part in the large wine & food trade fairs with wine importers, with the aim of establishing business relationships between them. Over two and a half days, buyers hold personalised and productive, pre-arranged meetings and tastings with carefully selected wineries in a private meeting environment.
Buyers appreciate the Workshops because they can find new wine suppliers not normally present in the large trade fairs, meet the winemaker in a highly personalized setting, taste the latest vintages, discuss imports, prices and timescales, discover new products and attractive labeling and packaging, and appreciate the excellence in price-quality.
