Fukuoka’s sommeliers, chefs, liquor store owners, wine importers and Italian wine-lovers are coming together to host the fourth Italian Wine Festival Fukuoka. Those who wish to edify their palates can join one of the seminars, including an hour-long seminar by the author of a guide to Italian wine (Yoshiyuki Kawazu, from 13:00), and a seminar held by the Asia/Pacific Ocean area manager of wine brand company Rotari (from 15:00). The first 150 wine-lovers in the door can participate in a stamp rally for the chance to win a rare bottle of wine. Extra tasting tickets and bar snacks are available on the day, but admission tickets are only available online. See the official website for more details. Cheers!
