«This fifth edition of the event» Sebastiano de Corato, President of the Consortium, states «aims to strengthen the reputation of the Puglia of wine on five continents, giving visibility to the local wine territories and creating business opportunities for member companies. Our wines, in effect, are true ambassadors of Made in Puglia in international markets, much appreciated for the character they express and for the excellent value for money that characterizes them. We are particularly proud of this event» De Corato continues «because it has the ability to lead directly on the territory the key persons for the promotion and dissemination of the Puglia wine in the world and a selected audience of journalists. In this way, the “product–wine” can be contextualized in the background from which it is created, that is made ​​not only of professionalism and expertise of the producers, but also of culture, traditions and history that characterize our region”.
