After this show, you’ll know why we named this site ‘Winebuzz!’
The wine festivities continued yesterday at the Hong Kong International Wine and Spirits Fair 2009. More wine seminars, and more tastings all day and well into the evening at special events all over Hong Kong. This is one trade show all attendees will not soon forget!
In our photo gallery below you’ll get a better look at some of the exhibits and aisle, on top of aisle of wine distributors, wine makers, country pavilions, wine accessory suppliers and so much more. Exhausting you say? Definitely! Hopefully these photos can sort you through some of the exhibits as the rest of Hong Kong is invited to join today as the Fair opens to the public for 1 day only.
