Some people say that fairs - especially wine fairs - are a concept of the past. I don´t think so: fairs will be necessary also in the future. First of all because they bring together a huge amount of wine producers from many countries and this has a value. The wine fair offers a platform where many traders, buyers, but also sommeliers, wine experts, restaurant owners, etc etc have the possibility to develop their knowledge, discover new wines and can meet the producers: there is no other place. And, if you are starting a wine business there is no better way to learn ore about wine than to visit a fair. #Prowein is the most important fair in Europe for this aspect. It is good to notice that Prowein is adapting the size and the concept of the fair to new developments. It had become too large. And let´s hope that the trains and transport companies will not strike again next year (like they did in March 2024!)! #fair #prowein #winefair #concept #paulbalke

This year I have attended Vinitaly after many years. Among the four main wine fairs, Vinitaly (the other one being ProWein, Wine Paris and Millésime Bio) was the best organized one. ProWein has been for years my main focus, but I think that its limit is being in Düsseldorf. This year I could not go. The city offers too little for a global oenogastronomic crowd and the prices were skyrocketing. Maybe it's time to consider doing it in another city? We should try to remember that those working in the wine industry are directly or indirectly involved with tourism and hospitality, therefore they might want/need to go to locations offering different choices, standards and opportunity. Wine Paris: what a chaos. Ok, fine, you are in Paris, the touristic capital by excellence, but the downsides are an overcrowded public transporation system, non-existing taxis, and fair premises where one has almost to climb a hill..... Millésime Bio: very interesting fair and well organized, if only they organized the producers' stands per region and not randomly. Montpellier is a lovely and calm city, public transportation is good. To my own surprise, Vinitaly was great. Everything was clear and clean, food was great and one can taste so many different grape varieties, like nowhere else. The main train station is near. Verona is also a touristic and beautiful place to go. Vinitaly Official ProWein Millésime BIO Vinexposium #winefairs #wine #tourism #hospitality

We had a great weekend heading to Sydney for the Sydney Gin Festival. Loads of great feedback from customers and also got to forge a few new friendships and share stories with fellow distillers One thing rang very true and that’s just how much of an affect the current economic conditions are flowing on to events like these. We have noticed certainly in the last 6 months a large drop in people’s willingness to buy luxury products like craft gin after paying for tickets and transport to get to and from events, which is a testament to the resilience of Aussie people prioritizing essentials over luxuries in tough times. Sadly, this drop in spending will continue to see doors of great Australian businesses close in favor of cheaper mass produced imported products more conveniently available at the corner bottle shop. We are one of the lucky ones, able to run very lean and agile, but others are not. So next time you purchase a bottle of your desired beverage, can I encourage you to look at the label to see where it was made, and buy one made by a small Aussie business, or better still visit a local market and buy direct from the producer there. It may be a few dollars more but those dollars stay here and grow our economy and that in turn builds a stronger Australia. Cheers 🥂 and always drink responsibly #findyournewdimension

Last week was dynamic for the spirits industry, with Bar Convent Berlin (BCB) 2024 hosting key launches, partnerships, and industry discussions. As reported by The Spirits Business, premiumisation and regional authenticity were leading themes, with brands showcasing unique, high-quality products to meet evolving consumer demand. Casa Redondo introduced its Safari liqueur and connected with distributors to expand its reach globally, highlighting popular regional products like Licor Beirão and Amarguinha. This aligns with the industry’s move toward regionally inspired products with authentic narratives. .Experiential marketing also took center stage, exemplified by Proximo Spirits’ partnership with Maestro Dobel Tequila at the US Open. Through immersive brand experiences, Proximo illustrated the shift from traditional luxury to deeper consumer engagement. This trend reflects the spirits industry’s focus on building long-term loyalty by offering consumers more than just a product Represented by us, Sprisetto made a notable debut at BCB, generating interest and building valuable connections as it enters the market. The event provided a powerful platform for Sprisetto’s growth, allowing us to align the brand with the industry’s focus on premium quality and authentic consumer experiences. https://lnkd.in/dPHAWJh5 #BCB2024 #Sprisetto #SpiritsIndustry #PremiumSpirits #ExperientialMarketing #BarConventBerlin
