Visitor Statements 2010

Bärbel Bartels from Magdeburg

Bild anzeigen

She has a marked preference for the Iberian Peninsula. Bärbel Bartels thinks that Spanish wines become increasingly popular and that Portuguese wines will follow the same trend soon. That is why the speciality retailer walks through hall 6 in search for the best wines. Each year she returns to ProWein and this year she discovered something special apart from Spain and Portugal: „I found a German wine-grower that convinced me with a superb Riesling.“

Meinolf and Fabian Plitt from Düsseldorf

On a personal level, Meinolf Plitt prefers wine from Rhône Valley. Also on the professional level he stays truthful to the Grand Nation: He searches for French wines at ProWein 2010. „I and colleagues test the different types and later decide together what kind we are going to buy“, the expert says. His son Fabian accompanies him in order to be slowly introduced to the wine-trade – no other place could be better but Prowein for such a task. „We are always very satisfied with this trade fair.“

Larissa Heinke, Sebastian Bertling, Miraldina Bunga from Essen

These three scholars are relaxing at the bar of the Fizz-Lounge. They came to ProWein 2010 for an assignment: "Our teacher told us to collect information concerning different wine growing areas." Since they are going to become fully qualified waiters, Larissa, Sebastian and Miraldina need to learn everything about wines. „Prowein is very interesting in terms of supporting the facts we learn in school.“

Spensor Pereira from India and Joseph Abdo from Lebanon

„We are looking for spirits and wines from all parts of the world“, Spensor Pereira says. He and his colleague Joseph Abdo work for a liquor importing company in Oman. At this moment they are contacting Austrian wine growers in hall 7. „We already placed an order“, Pereira says. He is very excited to be in Düsseldorf since ProWein is "very well organised" and he is certainly going to return next year.

Aurelija Linkuviene and Regvita Jaraminaite from Lithuania

The two ladies from Lithuania decide which wine is going to be placed in a well-known supermarket chain in the Baltic state. „Everything is greatly organised here and so clean“, Aurelija Linkuviene says about ProWein 2010. She is especially interested in French, Italian and New World wines.

Pius Regli from Sylt

The owner of a restaurant from the little German island Sylt does not have much time. He needs to see a lot at ProWein 2010 – in only just one day. The native-born Swiss came to Düsseldorf searching for superb German and Italian wines. Now he needs to carry on. He will come back next year anyway.

Fischer + Trezza

Delicatessen from Italy including everything from salami to mozarella and selected wines are being offered by Fischer + Trezza. Delicious: Robiola alla Verza - a goat cheese wrapped with savoy cabbage.

DeliGreece

Extra vergine olive oil from Crete in very high quality - for more than six generations this oil has already been produced in the east of the Greek Island. Very tasteful!

This salt is five million years old, has its origins in Australia and is called Murray River Salt. All Australian carries products from down under into the wide wide world - this time to ProWein in Düsseldorf.
