VIA ALMATY 2024
For its landmark 30th edition, Vinitaly International Academy (VIA) made a momentous debut in Kazakhstan, hosting the event in Almaty at IWine School. This expansion provided Italian wine professionals across Eurasia with unparalleled access to the expertise and opportunities offered by the prestigious VIA course. Candidates participated for 3 days, tasting 34 Italian wines and taking the difficult 2.5 hour exam.
The result? 12 candidates passed becoming newly certified Italian Wine Ambassadors!
Thanks everyone for your hard work, and to VIA Faculty member Sarah Heller MW for leading these incredible VIA edition.
Remember: the Flagship edition of VIA will be back in Verona on March 27-31, 2025!
