ONLINE WINE TASTING

Coronavirus has changed people and habits by “180 degrees”, and catering is certainly one of the most affected industries. What will remain as a consequence of the global pandemic is certainly alienation in a certain way and the increasing use of online platforms. So people came up with the idea to create a real atmosphere for themselves and drink a glass, two of good wines and talk to friends or family through some of the applications.

One of the terms in the world of wine that is becoming more and more popular every day are “wine tasting rooms”. This term means virtual wine tasting, as a kind of way to connect and discover new things related to wine, as well as to learn new things about a favorite product.

Tasting rooms may not be everyone’s favorite, but for now it is the only right way to educate people by socializing and gathering, in order to open vistas and spread, above all, healthy optimism. There are more and more events like this, and many of them include celebrities who are in fact the hosts of the virtual tasting itself.

Some of these gatherings are free, ie only participation, while a good part of such events include sending certain wines to your home address, as part of the education and tasting package. Such events are paid for, a certificate of participation is obtained, they are most popular in the United States, but also in other European Union countries, so such a trend has not bypassed Serbia, a country that has been successfully positioned as a country with exceptional quality wines for several years.

In the past few months, this trend has been spreading in our country as well. Every month, there are certain wineries that present their wines to people who sit in the warmth of their homes and drink wines that have previously arrived at their addresses. Take the opportunity to expand your knowledge about Serbian wines and wine culture in your home, in society or on your own.
