17th Grand Wine Experience Scheduled on November 24 at Marriott

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Selected bloggers were invited to witness a prelude to the 17th Grand Wine Experience at the Wine Museum Boutique Hotel where a few participating brands from the wine industry presented their brand and treated us to some wine tasting.

The event is organized by one of the biggest wine importers and distributors in the Philippines - the Philippine Wine Merchants (PWM). The event is to be held on November 24, 2017, Friday, starting at 5 PM and will again be at the same venue as last year's - the Grand Ballroom of the Marriott Hotel, Newport City in Pasay city, and surely promises to be even bigger and better than the previous runs.

We are convinced because this will be our third time to attend the event and if considering the first two runs, we look forward to another feast of not only wine but also food from the great chefs of Marriott.

We can still remember last year's liquor and cuisine feasts where we could hardly visit all wine stalls, and the sumptuous food that were a great match, plus the epic dessert that came down from the ceiling. We are now wondering how the organizers would be able to exceed what they have done already from the past years.

The Grand Wine Experience started from featuring 11 countries, now there are more than 20 countries and counting brought all together by the Joseph Brothers in a single event. Each country offers not just one but several wine brands and variations so be sure to ready to taste a heavenly list of wines at the event.

Because a real epicurean knows by heart what good wine is and the true enjoyment it brings so this event was made not only to showcase them the best wines that the PWM has to offer but also to cater them different varieties of courses perfect for pairing with different wines and spirits. This is where Marriott comes in with their delectable dishes that will surely be more than delightful when paired with the wines at the event.

Despite the lavishness and luxury of the event, PWM never forgets their social responsibility that’s why to share their success and blessings, every year, proceeds of the Grand Wine Experience are donated to ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation, Inc., to Project Pink and to T.E.A.M. (Tourism Educators and Movers) Philippines. . Not just that, one of the Joseph Brothers, Chairman Robert Joseph is a well-known tourism advocate in the country and he uses this event for his advocacies in promoting the tourism industry of the Philippines with the help of the Department of Tourism.
