EXPO MILAN - WINE PAVILION

Two thousand square metres, THE WINE PAVILION with VERONA FIERE aims to tell the story and culture of Italian Wine and involve the visitor in an attractive and exciting all-round experience. The wine pavilion, initiated by the Ministry of Agriculture and organised by VeronaFiere, was awarded the Class Expo Pavilion Heritage Awards for the best pavilion for a single food product.
