The 4th edition of Best Wine Stars in Milan, which took place from May 20th to 22nd, marked a resounding success as a three-day event, featuring wines and spirits tastings, masterclasses, food stalls, and an awards ceremony. Hosted at Palazzo del Ghiaccio in Via Giovanni Battista Piranesi in Milan, this event left an indelible mark on our memories.
Best Wine Stars was inaugurated in 2018 with a primary objective of uniting all stakeholders within the wine and spirits industry. The event offers a unique platform to engage with the finest Italian wines and spirits producers, allowing attendees to partake in tastings, Masterclasses, and Talks.
Another highlight of the event is the awards ceremony, which acknowledges excellence in categories such as Best Sparkling Wine, Best Red Wine, Best White Wine, Best Rose Wine, Best Communications Strategy, Best Spirits, and Best Label, among others. Furthermore, the organizers host a Business Dinner, fostering connections among participating companies and providing an opportunity to explore potential future collaborations and business
Beyond the walkaround tasting, where we had the pleasure of meeting numerous exceptional producers and winemakers, the Masterclasses and Talks held concurrently were the true highlights. These sessions delved into captivating stories and provided valuable insights, focusing on topics such as terroir, geography, history, and winemaking styles. They were both informative and enlightening, catering to a diverse audience, whether you were a winemaker, importer, distributor, or you operate an enoteca (in the States we call them liquor stores).
