Experiencing something for the first time can be magical. You go somewhere, not knowing what to expect. Whether you’re a wine lover or not does not matter, because the novelty of a new festival (or a festival in another country) is a big draw for anybody.

When you think of Amsterdam, your mind will probably race towards canals, bikes, coffee shops, museums, various events. Well, among cultural events, the city also hosts a big, biannual wine festival.
