This event represented a remarkable opportunity for our Korean friends to discover the unique character and exceptional quality of Moldovan wines.

This trade was organized with the support of strategic partners USAID Moldova.

Last week, Moldovei Wine participated in the “Vinexpo Meetings 2023” event, held in Seoul, South Korea, between October 5 and 6.

The event was dedicated to the wine business network and brought together wine buyers, importers and distributors.

South Korea represents an extremely dynamic wine market in Asia and promises to be very promising for the next decade. Vinexpo Meetings Korea marked the first step towards developing business relations in this market. With a population of 55 million, South Korea is now the tenth largest economy in the world, and its passion for wine is growing steadily.

The National Office of Vine and Wine supported 5 wine producers from Moldova to participate in the event. Chateau Vartely, Fautor, TM Kazayak, Vinaria din Vale and NOVAK wineries had the opportunity to identify new importers and extraordinary opportunities for business development.

We are excited about the prospects opened up in this ever-expanding market and look forward to seeing how our winemakers’ collaboration with our new partners in South Korea will evolve.

We are expecting a lot of good people in the center of the capital, in the Great National Assembly Square, during the two days of celebration of the product that has become the ambassador of our country in the world – Moldavian Wine.

Together we will support local producers, taste their creations, share experiences, information and stories and enjoy a good time, accompanied by quality music.

We are looking forward to getting to know each other. See you there!
