Italian Wines 2018


The Italian Trade Commission
A Tasting of Wines from Italy
23rd Edition


October 31, 2018

The Italian Trade commission organizes the Italian Wine tasting in Montreal each fall. Once again, as in the past years, it took place at the Marché Bonsecours located in Old Montreal, This annual even is extremely popular and attracts great crowds of wine tasters, producers, distributors, agents, and wine connoisseurs not only from Montreal but other Quebec locations as well as from some eastern Ontario regions. Everybody attending took a great interest wines presented this year. Though the event space is very large, nevertheless it was quite densely filled with the attendees who at times had to wait in line to taste some wines and to talk to wine producers.




This year had a record number of participating wine producers - 254 - each presenting their bet products. The variety and shear numbers of different wines available for tasting was truly overwhelming.




There was also plenty of food, mainly Italian cheeses and charcuterie specialities.



The event was a great success, well organized and very enjoyable.
