The WINE FUTURE Conference 2009, will be the defining Wine Conference of this era.
Register: PLACE THE ‘NEW SPAIN WINES’ CODE IN THE COMMENTS SECTION… code ( NSW )
This fall, in La Rioja, (northern) Spain, November 12th and 13th, Pancho Campo, and The Wine Academy of Spain, will be addressing one of the most timely issues of our era… the Future of Wine.
With the world’s economy in turmoil, and everything from the availability of fuel (to run a tractor in the field), to shipping costs, packaging alternatives, and the whole industry from beginning to end re-inventing itself, there is much room for discussion.
The ‘Wine Future’ Conference has invited the Leading Wine Minds of the Industry to discuss these issues and many more, offering advice, workable solutions, and answers, to the challenges that we will all face the every changing and unsure Future of the Wine World.
Tasting Table space for the Conference Tasting Forum, is available through New Spain Wines as well, for any Wineries whom are interested in Showcasing their Winery Project, and their Wines at the ‘Wine Future’ Conference. Please contact Wendy Vallaster or Javier Arauz for further details.

Wendy Vallaster of New Spain Wines is one of 5 finalists in the 2009 International Wine Woman Awards Competition
This Global competition takes place in Paris, May 11th, and 12th this year. Wish her luck, she is up against some pretty fierce competition!!
Fierce competition indeed! Congratulations are in order to Isabelle Legeron, an MW student poised to give her dissertation, and Wine TV personality, who is the 2009 Wine Woman Award winner! And rightly so, as she is brilliant. Isabelle is of French origin, but has been living and working in England for some time now.
The event was lovely, a little nerve wracking, but fun… and with a fantastic group of Motivated, Educated, Innovative Women, all of whom should be proud candidates as the chosen 5 out of the many global contestants who entered the contest this year.
