Unique Wine Festival Enjoyed at Hangang... 'Global Wine and Food Trip' Held

'2022 Global Wine and Food Trip' Held

[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] A unique wine festival where you can experience a variety of wines and foods from around the world will be held this September. Asia Economy announced on the 6th that the '2022 Global Wine and Food Trip' will take place over two days, September 16-17, at the Sebitseom Floating Island (4th-5th floors).

Recently, the domestic wine market has been experiencing an unprecedented boom. As drinking culture shifts towards enjoying alcohol more leisurely, interest in wine has increased because even a single glass allows individuals to express their preferences and create diverse stories.

Additionally, the emergence of ultra-low-priced wines mainly in large supermarkets has lowered the entry barriers, enabling beginners, including the MZ generation (Millennials + Generation Z), to enjoy wine without burden.

As wine gradually permeates daily life, last year's wine import value also approached 600 million dollars (approximately 786 billion KRW), increasing by about 70% compared to the previous year, indicating a transition from the introductory phase to maturity.

The 2022 Global Wine and Food Trip, held for two days from September 16 at the Sebitseom Floating Island in Seocho-gu, Seoul, is a festival where visitors can taste wines from various regions and enjoy foods paired with them. With participation from major domestic wine and food companies, it is expected to present a new paradigm for wine culture.
