My Home Italy

                                         Hi there!

Today I want to invite you to visit Vinitaly. It is the world’s very first wine fair. It was held first in 1977. Ever since the fair has been held in Verona, Italy, Romeo and Juliet's city.

 This year, Vinitaly will take place from April 7th to April 10th 2013.

Vinitaly is not a trade fair. Exhibitors are not allowed to sell products to visitors and there are strict controls. This has many advantages: First of all, exhibitors do not pressure you to buy a bottle after your tried their wine. Exhibitors offer you to taste their best wines;  together with the wines you are normally offered nibbles of all kinds:  cheese, cold cuts, bread and so on!  It is a huge "aperitivo" in a way!

It should be noted that Vinitaly is not open to the general public. If you want to enter Vinitaly then you need to be in one of the following groups: Large-scale distribution, wholesalers, import-export, food retailers, bars, restaurants,hotels, catering, wine stores, wine bars, sommeliers, wine technicians, wine technology producers, producers of olive oil and wine,the trade press, authorities, and institutions.
