The Austrian Wine Experience - Singapore
The Austrian Wine Experience 2013 is a restaurant wine promotion from May 17 to June 16, 2013 featuring wines from 9 Austrian wineries. The AWE will offer Local Noses a range of different comparative tasting experiences at AWE partner restaurants to showcase the consistent quality of Austrian wine and to demonstrate how versatile these cool climate wines are in pairing with various global cuisines.
This month-long wine tasting "Experience" will feature 16 Austrian Wines (8 white and 8 red) and be offered at 19 of Singapore's top wine and dine establishments. The best part of this promotion is that each partner has designed a unique Austrian wine "experience" for their customers.
