The first round of the competition took place in Montréal. Here, the competition was open to all sommeliers in the province of Québec.

  • Afterwards, the sommeliers had the opportunity to learn more about Austrian wine in a seminar led by Christopher Sealy.
  • After the competition, where they demonstrated their knowledge and skills, one winner was honoured with the opportunity to travel to Austria for VieVinum 2024 to learn more about wine and Austria as a wine country.
