Catalan wine promoted among Mexico's wine, hospitality and distribution professionals

Prodeca and the Catalan Government Delegation to Mexico, in collaboration with the Escuela Mexicana de Sommeliers, have scheduled for February the 1st Catalan Wine Masterclass-Certification in Mexico City, a session aimed at professionals, sommeliers and staff from hospitality, hotels, supermarkets and specialist shops.

Under the brand "Catalonia, where wine is culture", this Masterclass-Certification aims to promote Catalan wine culture by introducing the diversity of Catalonia's soils and climates and our thousand-year-old wine culture through the 12 designations of origin that make up the Catalan wine map. The session gives the 40 participating professionals from restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and specialist shops the tools they need to promote and position Catalan wine in Mexico and so increase sales to the end customer.

Led by the director of the Escuela Mexicana de Sommeliers, Ricardo Espindola, the session included a tasting of 30 wines from 14 Catalan wineries present in Mexico, from 11 designations of origin.
