Best Somm Competitors
Wine Growers British Columbia (WGBC) and the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers (CAPS) are thrilled to welcome Canada's top sommeliers to the beautiful Okanagan Valley for theBest Sommelier of Canada Competition - followed by the fourth annual Wine BC Bootcamp. This year marks the first time ever the prestigious Nationals will be hosted in BC wine country - at the height of harvest season no less!
After more than a year of uncertain times for the wine and hospitality industries, it is so important to re-engage and continue to foster our passion for quality wine and service. This event represents a celebration of the incredible endurance of our shared need for conviviality and excellence.
The Best Sommelier of Canada brings together many of the top sommeliers from across the country for a two day competition that challenges their theoretical and practical wine knowledge and service skills. The winner of the competition will represent Canada at the Association de la Sommellerie Internationale (ASI) Contest of the Best Sommelier of the Americas, to be held in Chile February 2022.
