Who created the Finnish long drink? When did Finns start drinking wine? And how does wine get into their glasses?
At a time of market turbulence, when wineries are looking for new export markets, why not consider Finland? And for anybody interested, the person to talk to is Heidi Mäkinen MW, Portfolio Manager and Partner at Viinitie importing company.
