"Wine 2.0 NY is an incredible opportunity for our winery partners to gain exposure for their brands in the important NY market. Using this event as a base, our smartest wineries use the week to call on the NY area trade and host special private events for their wines." Said J. Smoke Wallin, Chairman of Wine 2.0. He continued, "if you are going to come all the way to NY and have some of your best wines available, it is only logical to get in front of as many trade members as possible."
