We are excited to serve as a vital source of information, connection and community for all who want to learn more about this inspiring wine region and their sustainable mission."
The 2026 Vins de Loire campaign will launch with a media celebration of Earth Day this April – an homage to the region's collective commitment to guiding and coordinating the vineyard's response to the challenges of the future in a sustainable and equitable way. To support trade partners across every tier including importers, distributors, retail and restaurant partners, Vins de Loire will also present a Masterclass Monday series in collaboration with GuildSomm, the nation's leading educational community for beverage professionals. The partnership will include in-depth guided tastings led by Master Sommeliers in Boston, Chicago, Houston, New York and San Francisco, as well as the introduction of new training resources available to all professionals and media.
