Each week Mijune will challenge three local Sommeliers in a fun blind tasting. Later, after you’ve watched the sommeliers do a blind tasting and attempt to guess the different attributes of the wines you can purchase the small lot, hard- to- find wines at BC Liquor Stores. These newly released, light and refreshing white and rosé wines will be available in select BC Liquor Stores starting in May. Don’t miss out on your opportunity to savour these unique wines and watch as some of BC’s best sommeliers compete!

Today, June 17th a whole new series of Wine Wednesdays starts with sommeliers Leagh Barkley, formerly Wine Director at Blue Water Cafe; Kelcie Jones, Wine Director at Chambar; and Woody Wu, Co-Owner and Managing Partner of Origo Club.
