There is an art to making fine wine. There is also an art to recognizing the nuances that go into making such a wine. Make the most of the Festival by
asking knowledgeable wine agents and producers all
about their wines, how they are made, the characteristics of different grapes, and the art of distinguishing the aroma and taste of different wines. You will be surprised at how enlightening these free tasting tips can be.
Learn, enjoy and be inspired at the finest food and wine show of the year!
