An event organised for the first time in June 2005 in the Styrian capital Graz (Grand Hotel Wiesler) and in Wien (Museumsquartier) by the wine trading house WEIN & CO. A total of 115 exhibitors from Germany, Greece, Italy, Austria, Portugal, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Hungary presented their products. Exclusive rarities could be tasted in the additional programme "Masterclass". Highlights were a vertical tasting by Josef Umathum, a "Garage Wine Tasting" by the Pöckl Winery and "10 Years of Bordeaux". See also under awards and wine events.
As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
