On Tuesday 17th of September we took part in the International Wine Tasting, which is a networking event organised every year by several foreign Chambers of Commerce in London to bring their members together and foster international links among them.<\/p>\n

Over 200 guests gathered at D<\/b>STRKT, <\/b>a club steps away from Piccadilly Circus, to taste a selection of wine varieties from around the world as they walked their way around the different country stations scattered throughout the club.<\/p>\n

Attendees enjoyed the wide variety of wines during the event.<\/p><\/div>\n

On this occasion, Argentina<\/strong>, Austria, Canada<\/strong>, France<\/strong>, Italy, Macedonia, Mexico, Japan<\/strong>, Spain<\/b> and Switzerland<\/strong> were the countries whose wines and spirits were represented at the event. This made this event the largest International Wine Tasting to date in terms of number of countries represented.<\/p>\n

With such international mixture the event didn\u2019t fail to impress. Guests had a unique opportunity to broaden their international business networks with their peers from other Chambers, with which everyone was delighted. In fact, attendees were sharing and exchanging opinions about the wines and making recommendations to each other in a really good mood, which translated into a very positive and lively atmosphere.<\/p>\n

The Canadian station received a constant flow of guests thanks to their ice wine.<\/p><\/div>\n

According to many attendees, the revelation of the evening was Canada and their ice wine. Others showed their preference for sweet sake, one of the varieties presented by Japan. What everyone agreed on was the excellent selection each country offered, which allowed many guests to discover new and unexpected flavours.<\/p>\n
