The Italian Women in Wine Association is the biggest association of women in wine in the world thus deserving a big party for its 30th anniversary (1988-2018). So it has just started the celebration right in Firenze, where it was born in March 1988 thanks to Elisabetta Tognana, to present the programme together with some popular friends such as the writer Sveva Casati Modignani and the journalist Giletti. The programme will be developed all over the italian territory and based on the common theme: women, wine and cinema. It is enough to follow the web-pages of the national association or those of the regional delegations.
