On Oct. 5 and 6, Chicago is set to host the second edition of Vinitaly.USA, an exhibition bringing together hundreds of Italian wine producers and thousands of buyers across North America. Vinitaly.USA showcases the dynamic nature of Italian wines and offers over 30 masterclasses and other events for attendees to network, learn, and taste. And here to tell us more about it are Molly Matelski and Serafin Alvarado.

What are some of the lessons learned from last year’s debut of the U.S.-based version of the iconic wine conference? Why make Italian spirits a part of the focus? What are some of the most exciting elements of this year’s programming? Tune in for more.
