RAW Wine NYC 2019, the wine fair for artisan and natural wine, is coming soon and we are thrilled that Battista Belvisi from Abbazia San Giorgio is part of it this year. Battista was the first winemaker we worked with, we love his wines and we love him. We’re super happy that many people here in New York will have a chance to meet him and taste his wines.
The wine fair is a two-day event featuring over 100 natural, organic and biodynamic wine artisans. Dates are Sunday, October 27 and Monday, October 28. The location is in Maspeth, Queens, at the Knockdown Center, 52-19 Flushing Avenue. This is not so far from the previous years’ venue in Bushwick, Brooklyn, 15 min from the Jefferson metro station.
