The Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants returns to Hamburg, Germany, 23–25 October 2026, bringing independent French winemakers to the Cruise Center Altona.
The Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants returns to Hamburg for its 2nd edition, from 23 to 25 October 2026 at the Cruise Center Altona. After a successful first edition in one of Europe's most iconic ports, the French Independent Winegrowers return to showcase the authenticity of French artisanal wines to German wine lovers and trade professionals.
A carefully selected group of independent winemakers will travel from across France — from the Jura to Provence, Alsace and Bordeaux — to present their wines directly to visitors, sharing the spirit of terroir beyond French borders.
Meet the winemakers directly: taste and discuss with a curated selection of independent French producers, in an intimate setting well suited to genuine exchange. Discover French gastronomy: foie gras, charcuterie, cassoulet and cheese platters, alongside seafood specialities such as oysters from the Île d'Oléron. Take advantage of free entry for wine trade professionals (on presentation of a business card), press (with press card) and under-15s.
Attending the fair as a buyer or enthusiast? With a curated selection of French winemakers to taste over three days, keeping track of every wine can quickly become a challenge. Tastee lets you record your impressions in real time, compare profiles across producers and regions, and build a structured archive of your discoveries.
Whether you're already familiar with French terroirs or discovering them for the first time, Tastee helps you capture every impression before it fades. Your notes are saved, searchable and ready to share once the fair is over.
