Around a hundred winegrowers producing natural, biodynamic and/or organic vintages will be in Montreal on November 18 and 19 for the Raw Wine show.
As is often the case, due to strong tradition, France and Italy will take up more space than all the other countries, with 46 representatives between them. But Austria also has a great delegation (14 winegrowers), including Franz Strohmeier, Rennersistas and Judith Beck.
From here, there will be artisans from Nival, Pervenches, En Roue Libre, Maison agricole Joy Hill and Domaine le Grand Saint-Charles, among others.
There will be a few winegrowers’ evenings around the show in the refreshments and restaurants of the metropolis, like the one held by the Oenopole agency at the Gia restaurant with the winegrowers from Radikon, COS and La Biancara, on Saturday evening.
Otherwise, to sustain yourself during these demanding tastings, which require knowing how to elbow your way, there will be food prepared by La Dispensa, by the Mirepoix caterer and by the Butterblume restaurant, as well as Pista coffee.
The show, which is held at the Grand Quai du Port de Montréal, is full on Saturday for non-industry professionals, but there are still places available on Sunday, at a cost of $80 all inclusive.
