The opening ceremony included speeches from Mr. Federico Bricolo, President of Veronafiere Group, Mr. Alan Hung, Executive Director of Shenzhen Pacco Cultural Communication, Mr. Zuming Wang, Secretary General of Wine Committee of China National Association for Liquor and Spirits Circulation, Mr. Fernando Mattos, Uruguayan Minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Mr. Valerio De Parolis, Consul General of Consulate General of Italy in Guangzhou and Mr. Aitor Mate, Chief Economic & Commercial Counsellor of Spain in Guangzhou, gave the brief introductions on the overall exhibition and the highlights of each representative country's pavilion. 

Veronafiere has been active in the Chinese market for many years. The first edition of Wine to Asia can be considered as a complete presentation aimed at promoting the recovery and development of China's dynamic emerging wine market. We would like to express our gratitude to all the participating wine merchants, consuls, and associations who have always believed in this project, which originated from Italy but has an international vision.

"Over the past three years, we have faced many difficulties and challenges, operating under many uncertain factors. Today, we have finally begun a new journey, and I sincerely thank the exhibitors who registered to participate in our event three years ago and have been supporting us all along until today. At the same time, I would like to express my gratitude to the national pavilions and associations for their strong support."

"The market and business environment in Shenzhen is excellent, and wine consumption has always been at the forefront in China. With the recovery driven by economic growth and promotion, the boutique wine market will definitely revive. I hope that all wine industry practitioners can work together towards this goal."

"China has always been one of the main export destinations for our food products, and we are gradually increasing our wine exports to China as well. Uruguay is also a traditional wine-producing country, producing a variety of flavors and types. We welcome everyone to visit the Uruguay booth and taste more diverse wine selections."

"Wine to Asia can be considered as another flagship project of the Veronafiere after Vinitaly. With the economic recovery in 2023, the opening of the Chinese market, and promotion platforms such as Wine to Asia, Italian wine sales will experience further growth."

"Spain is the second-largest participating country in terms of the number of exhibitors in this year's Wine to Asia. The Spain Top Wines will showcase some of the finest wines from Spain, while the Rioja group will feature a diverse range of wines from this world-renowned wine region. We hope everyone can visit the Spain pavilion to taste the excellent wines from Spain."
