Catching the Train and then I get on a Plane, follow me on a Wine Tourism Journey Across Spain, a blog by Gabby Rossouw.
As the CEO of Wine Fantasy Barcelona, I’m so happy to announce my participation in two prestigious wine tourism events this March: the FINE #WineTourism Marketplace in Valladolid and the International Wine Tourism Conference (IWINETC) organized by Wine Pleasures.
FINE #WineTourism Marketplace
Scheduled for March 5th and 6th, 2025, at the Feria de Valladolid, FINE is a premier event dedicated to wine tourism professionals. The program features conferences, round tables, and workshops focusing on various aspects of wine tourism, including its development and future challenges. This gathering offers a unique platform to connect with industry leaders, explore innovative approaches, and discuss the evolving landscape of wine tourism.
International Wine Tourism Conference (IWINETC)
Following FINE, I will attend the IWINETC, a leading global event for the wine and culinary tourism industry. Organized by Wine Pleasures, this three-day event comprises a two-day conference and a one-day workshop. It provides a comprehensive professional education program, an extensive exhibition area showcasing wine travel destinations, and a focused business environment for tour operators and wine tourism experience providers. IWINETC is renowned for facilitating meaningful connections and offering insights into the latest trends and opportunities within the industry.
Expanding Horizons and Business Goals
Participating in these events aligns with my commitment to enhancing Wine Fantasy Barcelona’s offerings. Engaging with fellow professionals and learning from diverse experiences across Spain will enable me to bring fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to our clients. Visiting new wineries and understanding their unique stories enriches our tours, ensuring that we provide authentic and memorable experiences.
A Passion for Wine Tourism
Traveling for wine tourism is more than a business endeavor; it’s a passion. The joy of discovering new wineries, meeting passionate winemakers, and immersing oneself in different wine cultures is unparalleled. These journeys not only broaden our knowledge but also deepen our appreciation for the art and tradition of winemaking.
Stay tuned for updates as I embark on this exciting journey to elevate our wine tourism experiences and bring the best of Spain’s vineyards to you.
