The Tenma Wine Summit returns for its second year on Sunday October 19 in Osaka’s Tenma district. Ten local restaurants and bars will each feature wines from a different country, offering one free glass to every ticket holder. Refills and wine pairing snacks (¥300) are available for purchase (cash only) at the premises. Wine importers and experts will be on hand to share insights into the wines and producers.
If you visit seven or more venues by 6pm, you’ll be entitled to enter a draw to win a half-bottle of wine when returning your sampling glass.
Tickets cost ¥1,800 per person and are available online. Additionally, there’s a ¥1,000 rental deposit for the wine-tasting glass, which you’ll receive when checking in at the reception at Wine Shop Ara. The deposit will be refunded when you return the glass without damage by 6.30pm.
