(Offlicencenews) - Argentine wine producers united UK and Argentine politicians under one roof with a wine tasting event in the Houses of Parliament this week.
As tension continues to rise between the two nations over the Falkland Islands, Robin Walker MP, chair of the British-Argentine All-Party Parliamentary Group teamed up with the Argentine Embassy in the UK for a goodwill event.
Andrew Maidment, UK director for Wines of Argentina, commented: “It was a pleasure to attend this event – one that clearly recognized the importance of Argentina’s wine exports to the UK.”
Four Argentine producers poured for the likes of the Ambassador of Argentina in the UK, Alicia Castro, Baroness Hooper and various other MPs and Lords.
