After its incredible success with the public and press for Collisioni 2014, Project Wine (Progetto Vino) is returning to the Langhe's biggest music event of the year.With thousands of participants at the wine tastings in 2014, Project Wine expects even more this year. 2015 sees a comprehensive tasting program with international wine critics, writers, importers, buyers -- and, of course, wine lovers.
Creative Wine Director of Collisioni and scientific director of Vinitaly journalist Ian D'Agata has selected important members of the wine sector from around the world with particular attention cast on the United States, an ever more viable market for Italian wines. In addition, emerging markets China and Korea, the new frontier of wine, will be represented.
Critics, sommeliers, and market experts will all take part in the guided tastings that will be held in dedicated rooms within the Regionale Enoteca of Barolo. There will be tastings, meetings, and seminars open to the public to learn about and taste the great wines from this region and outside of it, as well.
