Last Monday the Dutch sherry campaign was presented in ‘De Rotterdamse Markthal’. Importers, retailers, restaurant owners, sommeliers and trainers were all invited. Marketing agency Alterego developed an interactive platform sherry.wine/nl at which they share information and inspiration and give education. You will find many tips at the platform but also ‘create your own Shapa’, ‘create cocktails with sherry’ or ‘create a dish with sherry’.
