The much-anticipated annual Italian wine tasting event known simply as “VINO” reaches its sixth iteration this year on February 6th. VINO 2017, organized by the Italian Trade Commission, will take place at the stylish Spring Studios in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood. The grand tasting, roundtable, and seminars will feature over 120 producers and 600+ wines. VINO 2017 offers wine industry professionals and media the most comprehensive opportunity in the U.S. for education and exploration of Italian wines, from the tip to toe of the “boot.”
VINO 2017 will begin with a roundtable, “Italian Wines and the American Palate: Trends and Opportunities in the U.S. Market,” moderated by noted Italian wine expert, David Lynch. Mr. Lynch, a sommelier, author, and the Editorial Director of SommSelect, will lead a discussion anchored by research on consumer wine buying habits presented by John Gillespie of Wine Opinions. The roundtable will also include: Michele Scannavini, President, Italian Trade Commission; Leena Baran, Senior Manager, Import Wine Buying, Total Wine & More, and a representative from Vinitaly International.
