Event Description
The Old Vine Conference member community encompasses producers, distributors, generic bodies and private individuals. Membership of The Old Vine Conference is an impactful way to safeguard global old vine heritage and its priceless ecological and cultural value. In return, Members are able to showcase their wines and projects to our influential and uniquely engaged audience through exposure at conferences, inclusion in media and at tastings and events.
We will be featuring eight wines from members at this tasting - from vines ranging from 50 to a staggering 300 years old - including classic Carignan from France, Bolivian Moscatel and a good showing of Italians from Piemonte and Veneto. See full list below.
The next conference will be held in Tuscany this October, with "Old Vine Week" celebrated in November
Wine enthusiasts can enjoy membership for just £20 for 2 years: go to this link Membership — The Old Vine Conference (oldvines.org) if you are interested.

ONLINE TASTING FEE STRUCTURE:
For this special online tasting, an exclusive tasting kit is included in the listed price which includes a 50ml tasting sample of each wine. Note: Tasting kits will be dispatched in the week leading up to the tasting. If orders are placed fewer than 5 working days before the event the kit may not arrive in time for the live class but the wines can be enjoyed with the event recording.
Tasting kit delivery can be made to anywhere within the UK only. At present we are unable to fulfil international orders.
DON'T WANT TO RECEIVE A TASTING KIT? We understand that not everyone will want to receive the wine samples, and would rather just register to participate in the online evening without the wines. That is absolutely fine! The fee to just register for this evening without receiving a tasting kit is £10. Just enter the promotional code: 45REGONLY when checking out to ensure you just pay the registration cost.
