The second edition of the International Wine Competition on Vermentino, sponsored by the Region of Sardinia, the Municipality of Cagliari, the LAORE agency and Coldiretti Sardegna, will be held in Cagliari, Sardinia, on 24th and 25th of June.

In addition to Sardinia, Tuscany and Liguria, says Mario Bonamici, president of APS Promo Eventi, is spreading to other Italian regions and, of course, abroad. The aim is to make the competition increasingly important and attended by a large number of producers. Internationally, the focus is on the well-established production from Corsica and the south of France, the interesting and promising producers from America and Australia, with a few outsiders from South Africa and Malta. There is a lot of expectation and excitement for this second edition. The companies are very keen to get involved, also in the light of the complicated period that we hope to have definitively left behind. We will do our utmost not to disappoint expectations.
