From 29 September to 1 October 2019, Vinexpo Explorer was hosted by a French region for the first time. The land of Gamay, in Beaujolais.

Here, at the far southern tip of Burgundy, 70 key buyers came from 32 countries to get their fingers on the pulse of this dynamic wine region, with its well-judged balance between heritage and contemporary wine culture.

The third Chapter featured visits to vineyards and producers, curated tastings, dinners and business meetings.
