New York, NY (2009) – Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur searching for a full bodied Meritage or a new wine drinker looking for affordable blends that are lighter on the palate, the 3rd Annual New York Wine Expo will have what you are looking for…and so much more.



The New York Wine Expo (www.NewYorkWineExpo.com) will be hosting its third annual tasting February 26 through 28 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

French wineries and vineyards will have a significant showing this year, and as always, attendees can continue to look forward to Italian, German, Australian, and South American favorites. Not to be missed of course, local New York, Oregon and California wines. In all, the Grand Tasting offers attendees a chance to sample more than 600 wines from over 170 winemakers from around the globe.



“Every year the wineries have new blends and new regions they are sampling, making each Expo unique,” said Ed Hurley, New York Wine Expo Show Director. “It is a terrific opportunity to go beyond your comfort zone. You may be surprised at the varietals and blends you’ll want to try again, either at home or while dining out.”

Attend the Expo not just for the sampling, but for the learning experience as well. To date, seminar presenters will include Gloria Maroti Frazee, who oversees Wine Spectator School and Leslie Sbrocco, award winning author, and Founder of “Thirsty Girl” a brand new multi-media company focused on wine, food and travel.
