Pancho Campo unveils Spanish selection

WineFuture has announced the Spanish wines to be shown at its Hong Kong event in November.

The wines come from 16 producers representing 13 regions from Rias Baixas to Ribera del Duero, and have been selected by Pancho Campo MW.

The 16 wines, including iconic names such as Pazo Señorans and Mas La Plana, will be available for attendees to taste while Campo talks through the characteristics of Spain’s wine regions accompanied by audiovisual material designed “to transport the audience to the various regions, vineyards and wineries.”

Campo said, “This is one of the most important tastings of Spanish wine in history, taking into account the high level of the audience, whom we hope to impress with the quality, diversity and richness of Spanish wine.”

“We are convinced that the event will provide a vital boost to the importation of Spanish wines into the Asian sector,” he added.

The Spanish tasting event will take place on the first day of the conference, 6 November at 6:15pm Hong Kong time and can be followed online via live streaming on www.winefuture.hk or www.madwine.tv.
