Bello Vino, Malaysia’s pioneering Italian Wine Journey, commenced on November 13, 2023, and concluded on November 18, 2023, marking a triumphant success!
Drawing in over 500 participants over the span of a week, Bello Vino fulfilled its primary objective of highlighting and introducing the diverse spectrum of Italian wines from every region. The event featured a series of masterclasses, dinners, an Italian Wine Expo, and exclusive wine tasting sessions.
Enthusiasts embarked on a captivating odyssey with Bello Vino, exploring the distinctive landscapes of Italy’s wine regions. Participants had the unique opportunity to savor the unique flavors and aromas of each region, expertly guided by Owners and Export Managers who flew in directly from the Italian Wineries.
Bello Vino transcended being merely a learning and networking platform for Trade Professionals; it served as a cultural exchange, uniting international wine sommeliers and enthusiasts. Through shared experiences and insights, participants developed a profound appreciation for Italian wines, their ‘winecrafts,’ and their legacy.
The success of the event owes much to the unwavering support of the Italian wineries that actively participated. Their passion and dedication to their craft shone through in the exceptional wines they presented, creating a lasting impression on all who had the pleasure of tasting them.
