Sommelier Battle: The (Ir)Relevance of Old World vs New World
Our beloved format at Wine Paris: the sommelier battle brought to you by ASI x Vinexposium.
This year our sommeliers will discuss the irrelevance or relevance of the terms ‘Old World’ and ‘New World’: with so many changes and challenges, like climate change, winemaking technologies evoltuion, shifting consumer preferences, do we still stick to these definitions?
Come and join our discussion lead by Marc Almert and Pascaline Lepeltier: they have chosen some wines to taste along and highlight some of the points of their discussion.
