MARCO FURLAN
Winemaker
Guest of Honor
Marco Furlan found out that he not only likes the variables of the wine-making business, he also loves talking about it, sharing his enthusiasm for and knowledge of home, Friuli - one of Italy’s lesser known but emerging regions. Beverly Malen says, “Marco started making trips abroad to meet with the winery’s importers and distributors. It was on his first trip to Chicago in the fall of 2005 that I found out that Marco is a White Sox fan! Don’t hold it against him! I look forward to introducing him to you.”
