A professional
wine event.
No noise.
Focus on wines.

Helsinki Wine Meet 2026 is a new kind of wine event created exclusively for HoReCa professionals and wine importers.
It brings together international wineries seeking importers in Finland with importers and restaurant decision-makers looking for new, relevant wines.

This is not a trade fair. It is a professional event organized in co-operation with The Finnish Sommelier Association and
it is a working platform for discovering, evaluating and connecting through wine.
