Next Monday January 26th the 22nd edition of Millésime Bio will take place in Montpellier, France.
This trade fair is an annual landmark event for worldwide organic wine market players. Organic/bio wine commerce is constantly on the increase both in terms of popularity and business volume around the world, with France’s producers pioneering this approach to wine and still being at the forefront and a source of inspiration, globally, for fellow vintners (small and big) and consumers. Hence it is natural for this event to be set in France, and in the city of Montpellier, in particular. It is organised by the Languedoc-Roussillon Region and Sudvinbio. So, although not “globally-friendly”, it is rather acceptable that conferences and events will be in French language only.

The exhibition/fair will occur within three days: from January 26th to the 28th and will be reserved to wine trade professionals. The program is detailed in the tradeshow website (www.millesime-bio.com), where any professional interested in participating can find directions for registration and participation to the happening.

Some of the most interesting events organised are:

« L’Apéro by Millésime Bio » (free evening drink with organic beers and juices) at the bars and Sud de France stand on Monday 26/01 at 6:30pm-8:30pm
