BEIWE III
Borgoña
Monday – 19 May
A meeting for wine and gastronomy professionals.
The Barrio de la Estación International Wine Encounters (BEIWE) will hold its third edition on Monday 19 May in Haro, consolidating its position as a key event in the world of wine. This year, the guest region will be Burgundy, which takes over from Piedmont and Bordeaux, the protagonists of previous editions.
Organised by the Barrio de la Estación Association, the meeting will bring together 600 professional attendees in a day that will run from 10:00 to 17:30, in different venues in this historic wine-growing district of La Rioja. In addition, for the first time, BEIWE will be selling limited tickets for amateurs, available from 10 March at www.barrioestacion.com/en/visits. This ticket does not include participation in the activities.
