Cellar Tastings Launches New Food And Wine Tasting Events Calendar

Madrid, Spain, April 1, 2004  Cellar Tastings SL, the European Wine Tour specialists, have just launched their newest venture- a worldwide events calendar completely dedicated to food, wine and gourmet travel events. In its first weeks, the site received over 600 postings of international wine tastings, wine tours, culinary festivals and more.

Cellar Tastings' "Events Calendar" aims to be the largest food and wine events database on the web, and is achieving this goal quickly. Response has been incredible and the calendar has been growing daily. We saw a lack of a truly international wine and food events calendar site out there , says Genevieve McCarthy, director of Cellar Tastings, and we knew people would be receptive to the concept. Postings have already come from all over the world including New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Sydney, London, Milan, Barcelona and Singapore.

On the site, www.cellartastings.com, you can find gourmet events such as: wine tastings, wine and culinary vacations, cooking lessons, gourmet dinners, wine fairs, harvest festivals, folkloric festivals related to local artisan products, wine classes and education, sommelier training, etc. If you are looking for things to do related to food or wine, the team at Cellar Tastings guarantee that you will find interesting options on their site. They accept relevant postings from wine clubs, wineries, restaurants, wine and spa hotels, tour operators specialized in culinary travel, cooking schools and private individuals.

CellarTastings.com is divided into five sections: Events, Wine, Food, Travel and Gourmet Features. From Chianti to Sonoma Valley, La Rioja to New York's Finger Lakes, and Port to Napa, Cellar Tastings Wine Section includes a "Best Of Highlights", winery profiles, wine photos, and descriptions for each wine producer. Profiled countries include Spain, Portugal, Italy, Argentina, Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and more.
