Southern Italy was called enotria (the land of vines) by the ancient Greeks who‐ long before the Romans‐‐ conquered the area and discovered that it was an ideal place to grow grapes and make wines. Tuscany and her red wines are the heart of soul of Italy and it is here that the Sangiovese grape dominates the blends of the Chianti region as well as being the exclusive grape for the exquisite Brunello di Montalcino reds. In the Veneto in northern Italy are found the delicious white wines called Soave and the unique reds called Amarones. Above all, Italy produces by far the most diverse wines‐ red or white‐‐ of any wine region on earth. In this 2‐hour class, you will be taught about Italy's Red and White Wines.

Distinct Shopping
When it comes to distinctive shopping, Orlando has deep
closets. While we can certainly bring out the glitz, we also
know a great deal when we see one. Our mix of sophisticated malls, quaint boutiques and value-driven outlet
centers serve up globally-known brands and unique local
finds. And their close proximity to each other and to the
Convention Area — all within a 15-mile radius — makes for
a stress-free shopping spree.
Exclusive Brands
For glamour, attendees need to look no further than
The Mall at Millenia, The Florida Mall, Pointe Orlando and
the Park Avenue shopping district in Winter Park. Shoppers
seeking well-known brands won’t be disappointed, and
those searching for exclusive designers won’t go away
empty-handed, either.
Value Savvy
Visitors can experience the best of both worlds by
shopping at our value-savvy collection of designer
outlet centers, including Orlando Premium Outlets® –
International Drive, Orlando Premium Outlets® – Vineland
Ave and the Lake Buena Vista Factory Stores. These outlet
centers feature some of the hottest names straight from
the pages of your favorite fashion magazine, but without
the not-so-famous mark-up.
