The Successful Wines and Styles seminar has taken place in the last 5 editions as a way to capitalize on the experience of the international panel of judges. At this meeting, the wineries learn first hand what the successful styles are at different target markets.
On this occasion, the 12 winemakers presented their most successful wines in international markets, highlighting key information such as the know-how, terroir management, winery styles, opportunities at key markets and latest trends behind the wines. Attendees had the chance to taste the wines produced by these renowned technicians, shipped especially for the AWA 2012 seminar.
The seminar took place on February 24 from 8.30 am to 2.30 pm at the Sheraton Hotel Mendoza.
