A centre for the spread and promotion of the Piedmontese wine culture in Norway
In the autumn of 2019 the consortium of promotion I Vini del Piemonte will start a series of appointments with the “Piemonte Wine School” in Oslo.
This ambitious and innovative project, already successfully tested in Denmark since 2017, aims at building a centre for the spread and promotion of the Piedmontese wine culture in Norway.
The 2019 programme includes four tasting seminars of Piedmontese wines at the Mathallen Vulkan, a lively metropolitan market, the beating heart of Oslo’s food and wine culture and home to an important wine club.
The lessons will have the form of a Wine Tasting Experience® and will be held by Ken C. Engebretsen and a team of prestigious Norwegian sommeliers. Ken C. Engebretsen is a founding member of Norsk Sommelier Education, the most important Norwegian school in the hotel and restaurant sector, and will be in charge of the “Piemonte Wine School” in Norway.
