Find us at Vinexpo and Unbreakable Glasses!

Sommelier India is visiting Vinexpo in Hong Kong this week. We're combing the exhibition halls to learn how the wine industry is looking to quench India's thirst for world class wines. Vinexpo is Asia's largest wine exhibition with nearly 600 producers from 28 countries and regions including France, Italy, Germany, the United States, China and some Latin American countries exhibiting their wine and spirit products.

As reported by Decanter Magazine, an unbreakable wine glass made of a new material called Kwarx was launched at Vinexpo. Kwarx glass is handblown crystal and is supposed to retain lustre and transparency as well as being unbreakable. Journalists at Vinexpo were given an opportunity to break the glass. Non succeeded. We'll keep you informed as to when this important revolution comes to India.
