A LINE-UP OF SALONS & TASTING EVENTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2017
JANUARY 2017
The year kicks off with what has become an extremely successful and therefore vastly crowded event, the MARCHÉ AUX VINS D’AMPUIS, featuring CÔTE-RÔTIE. After all the hoopla surrounding 2015, this will be an action-packed affair this year.
MARCHÉ AU VINS D’AMPUIS
AMPUIS, FRIDAY 20 JANUARY – MONDAY 23 JANUARY, 2017
60 domaines will be showing their wines, with around 200 wines to taste across CÔTE-RÔTIE, CONDRIEU, SAINT-JOSEPH, CORNAS, HERMITAGE, CROZES-HERMITAGE and SAINT-PÉRAY.
FRIDAY 20 JANUARY 2017 11.00 to 19.00
SATURDAY, SUNDAY, MONDAY 21-23 JANUARY 2017 09.00 to 19.00
INFORMATION: +33(0)474 56 18 20
VINISUD
MONTPELLIER, PARC DES EXPOSITIONS, SUNDAY 29 – TUESDAY 31 JANUARY 2017
Vinisud has been suffering from a drop-off of interest in recent years – PROWEIN has taken trade from it, for example. The solution from the organisers has been to switch to an annual rather than bi-annual presence. Hmmm. They are also going head to head with the growing in popularity MILLÉSIME BIO, the organic wines salon, which is being held in MARSEILLE from MONDAY 30 JANUARY – WEDNESDAY 1 FEBRUARY 2017
ROUTE DE LA FOIRE 34470 PÉROLS +33(0)467 17 67 17
SUNDAY 29 JAN & MONDAY 30 JAN 09.00-19.00
TUESDAY 31 JAN 09.00-17.00

MILLÉSIME BIO
MARSEILLE, PARC DES EXPOSITIONS DE MARSEILLE-CHANOT, MONDAY 30 JANUARY – WEDNESDAY 1 FEBRUARY 2017
A good location beside the Mediterranean, with the varied interest and delights of MARSEILLE. This outpoints VINISUD in terms of environment. It has been running since 1993, gaining strength year on year. Beyond the tasting of domaine wines, there are talks on The Organic Wine Market, and a Focus on China and Europe as export markets for Organic Wines, the Organic Rosé wine market and others.
PARC CHANOT ROND-POINT DU PRADO 13008 MARSEILLE
MONDAY 30 JAN 10.00-19.00
TUESDAY 31 JAN 09.00-19.00
WEDNESDAY 1 FEB 09.00-17.00
