The organizing committee of the 22nd edition of the International Wine Festival has confirmed the attendance of wineries from several countries.

The Festival, to be held from October 4 to 6 at the 1930 Hall of the Hotel Nacional of Cuba, will arouse great expectations among nations with commercial and tourist relations with Cuba, the Hotel’s Commercial Director, Deivid Silva said.

Silva announced that Freixenet Group, Inversiones Pucara S.A. (IPSA), Bodegas Torres, Masía Vallformosa (VFMS), Joan Sardá, and Destilerías MG Cuba, among others, will attend the event.

A group of Italian and Mexican wineries, wine companies awaiting approval from the Chamber of Commerce of Cuba (CCC), and several Cuban micro, small, and medium-sized (MSMEs) producing artisanal wines have also confirmed their participation.

He also said that some local houses related to the production of cheese and sausages would be present. The Festival will be the perfect setting for participants to offer their products and be exhibited for tasting and pairing wines and cigars. (PL)
