About Regional Buyers Marketplace Southeast Asia Edition 2027

As an extension of the Global Buyers Marketplace that takes place in Napa Valley, California Wines is bringing the Southeast Asia edition of the Regional Buyers Marketplace to Singapore in January 2027, bringing together a select group of wine buyers from across Southeast Asia.
More than 50 California wineries will pour wines for a curated audience of importers, distributors, sommeliers, and retail buyers who are actively seeking to expand and diversify their California wine selections. All wines will be Asia export focused, with wineries actively seeking for new representation. For buyers, it is a chance to discover new producers and deepen relationships with existing partners. For wineries, it's an opportunity to showcase their portfolio to a global audience, build direct connections, and open new markets. Through one-on-one networking and focused tastings, the Buyers Marketplace is designed to create meaningful conversations and lasting relationships.
The conference consists of a 2-day session with California Wines seminars, Grand Tastings, and a group dinner.
