The 8th Annual Miami International Wine Fair is upon us, and will be held September 26-27, 2009 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.  There will be 500 producers showcasing more than 1,500 wines from 20 countries, and yet, unlike other big South Florida tasting events, there won’t be huge lines to wait in. Having attended the event in past years as both a member of the press and as an exhibitor, I can tell you first hand how enjoyable the Fair is.  What can be better being the first to try wines that have not yet been sampled in the U.S.? Well, trying them for charity. Proceeds from the event benefit Educate Tomorrow which provides one-on-one educational mentors to foster care children. Sounds good to me!
