Ivo Varbanov Wines Selection Portfolio Tasting
Sommeliers are invited to join us at our upcoming Trade Portfolio Tasting, where we’ll be opening a carefully selected range from our portfolio of over 200 wines, imported directly from independent producers across Europe.
As always, our focus for the on-trade is on wines with individuality, a strong sense of place, and a healthy resistance to overexposure — producers whose wines already sit comfortably on the lists of leading restaurants, while remaining refreshingly hard to find elsewhere. These are bottles chosen for character, identity, and how well they work at the table.
At the tasting you can expect:
· A focused selection drawn from our full portfolio
· The chance to meet visiting winemakers and speak directly with the people behind the wines
· A range shaped specifically for the on-trade: expressive, food-friendly wines with a genuine point of difference
· Producers whose wines are selectively listed, allowing sommeliers to work with bottles that feel personal rather than ubiquitous
