The Go wine guide "For those who believe that wine is worth a trip" has been presented in Milan: it is "Cantine d’Italia 2015", an entirely curated by Go Wine volume
Why "Cantine d’Italia 2015"?
The spirit of the work is to push enthusiasts to travel to know the charm of the territory of Italian wine through the story of many of its major interpreters.
"Cantine d’Italia 2015" tells places and stories of men and women of the wine world, tells the winery as a site to visit and as a factor that contributes to the promotion of wine tourism. This wine guide aims to create a culture in favor of wine and its territories. "Wine tourism in Italy is growing – the president of Go Wine, Massimo Corrado, highlighted – since the Guide was created we have been recording a continuous growth in the number of wineries that invest in favor of reception, both through parallel activities such as holiday farms, b&b, and through initiatives that make the winery an open place for meetings, cultural events, exhibitions related to taste".
