About the organizer of the event
Founded in 2003 by Andrea D’Ercole, Italyabroad.com was created from a lifelong passion for authentic Italian food and wine, and the desire to share Italy’s true culinary heritage with the UK and beyond.
At Italyabroad.com, quality, integrity, and tradition are at the heart of everything we do. We work directly with small, family-run wineries and artisan food producers across Italy - people who value craftsmanship over mass production, and who use only the finest natural ingredients. That means no palm oil, no preservatives, and no artificial additives - just genuine flavours made with care.
We proudly stand against industrially produced goods and misleading “Italian-sounding” imitations. Every bottle of wine and every product we import reflects the diversity of Italy’s regions and the dedication of the families who create them. Over the years, Italyabroad.com has been recognised with multiple awards for the outstanding quality of our wines and foods. But more than accolades, our journey is driven by passion, purpose, and a simple belief: no compromise, only the best and most authentic Italian wine and food.

Andrea has enabled us to expand our wine vocabulary far beyond the bastion of our favourite red, Amarone. It has been such a delight to get into white & rosé as well as many other red wines.
