Here's what's going down during the Grand Wine Experience 2023:
This 20th edition of the famed wine event (said to be Southeast Asia's largest!) will be held at the Marriott Grand Ballroom, and revolves around the theme Bud Break—i.e., the beginning stage in the annual growth cycle of grapevines when dormant buds are revitalized and produce new shoots. Whether you're a novice or a long-standing oenophile, you'll want to save the date as you get to taste your way through over 1,000 wines, spirits, sakes, and beers from all around the globe—all specially picked by industry pundits and celebrated winemakers and distillers. In between sips (and to slow down the alcohol absorption), you're more than welcome to tuck into savory nibbles available at the event.
Tickets go for P8,500 per pop and can be purchased through The Grand Wine Experience's website. Place those orders stat; you can get 10% off by keying in the code GWE2023 at checkout, valid until September 30. Doors open at 5 p.m. and the event lasts until midnight; pro tip, you'll want to sip small amounts just to taste (spit, if you must) as there's plenty to try at the event. You're not expected to try all 1,000, of course, but consider this your chance to go beyond your go-to bottles—and maybe get drink ideas for your next fancy dinner or at-home celebration.
