The Future of Wine

UNISG Winter School dedicated to Wine!

How do you build a functioning wine list and wine cellar for a restaurant? How can you maximize the economic and social benefits of wine with clients?

The short course “Wine of the future – future of wine” answers these questions.

A full immersion reserved for Horeca professionals to develop proposals and sales strategies, innovative storytelling and approach to wine, narration of the greatest wine regions but also of the new terroirs which for a few years have been the honor of the world but are still not found in all wine lists.

An in-depth journey, full of useful content to improve professional knowledge in a crucial location for Italian wine. Visit at the end of the course to the Piedmontese château: Fontanafredda, a wine company of absolute prestige.
