Eastern Winery Exposition 2023 | Sharing Wine

Sharing Your Wine

As a way of facilitating education and networking, we encourage everyone in the EWE community to share their knowledge and continue to learn about what others in the East are doing. What better way to do this than sharing and tasting each other’s wines? There are two EWE events designed just for this:

Welcome Wine Reception, March 14
The reception features wine tasting stations from states, associations and regions throughout the East.

11th Annual EWE Industry Celebration Dinner, March 15
Wines will be poured at the reception prior to dinner and also staged on dinner tables for everyone’s enjoyment during the meal.

Would You Like to Pour Wine at the Welcome Wine Reception?
You can take your participation one step further by pouring the wine from your region and sharing your knowledge about it. The following states/ associations/ organizations have been confirmed. Reach out directly to your organization’s representative if you’d like to assist them in pouring. 

 

The Wine Donation Process:

Step 1:
BEFORE EWE: Email us at 2023@easternwineryexposition.com by end of day February 28 with your name, company name, state, the number of bottles of red and of white, or other, that you are bringing to the Welcome Reception or Celebration Dinner so that we may track inventory (see sample below.) Just a few bottles of a few wines are needed, not more.

That’s all. Easy. No fees. No forms. Just be sure to note on the box where you prefer the wine to go…Reception or Dinner (or both).
