The location Iteris in the heart of Mechelen was until today - August 6, 2025 - still on the screen of our degustations for the fall event. Since parking was problematic at our spring degustation, we tried to solve this with city council with nope result. It was decided to realize the tasting elsewhere.
The location will be different but also the formulas that can be participated in.
The location is Bedrijvencentrum De Regenboog, De Regenboog 11 in Mechelen where we will have absolutely no parking problems.
No more 40 or more bottles in wine buffet but 8 Masterclasses spread over two days including one top masterclass that will take place on both October 25 and 26, 2025.
All master classes will be presented by Karina Imschoot personally, graduate after 3 years of courses at Associazione Italia Sommelier, AisPiemonte department, more specifically Turin department.
We start from 11 am and continue until 8 pm, during the two consecutive days.
Doors open 10h30, reception and service by the sommeliers will be provided by Mise en Place Mechelen.
Theme of all master classes will be "Wines from Alto Piemonte
Why the choice Alto Piemonte: the wines have a very big" like "factor, are very high quality and also fairly priced. Alto Piemonte has relatively young winemakers with lots of ambitions, direct to the point in all their communications, very good strategy and much more. Alto Piemonte is rapidly approaching or even surpassing other regions in terms of popularity. So time to pay attention to this. We will also spend part of the master class in direct streaming with the wine producers the master classes are about. This part will be provided by our IT partner TopasBV.
It will be - as I prefer - 8 master classes - where 14 people can register each time . The master class will take an hour and a half or two hours. Between each master class there will be a half hour break.
Participation in the master class is not free of charge, as with our other tastings. Participation costs 50 € per person but you will receive a code voucher so that you can recover the amount if you order from 100 €.
All master classes and booking opportunities will be released on September 1. All registrations are required to go through sales@madeinpiedmont-wines.be. Within 24 hours you will receive all details to make your payment with invoice private or corporate so that your booking is guaranteed.
We look forward to welcoming you numerous.
Just to mention: if you do not want to participate in a master class, you can attend the Winter Wine Tasting that will take place on November 15, 2025 at Intermezzo in Lede between 11am and 6pm. Here both new wineries and existing wineries will be present with a small selection of at least 40 wines. These wine tasting sessions will not be held at tables but in the main hall with bar tables and bar stools.
Further master classes will take place in Bruges and Antwerp. Contracts with these locations still need to be finalized. More info later.
