Sparkling wines are not just for celebrations. Festive, fun, vibrant and versatile, we will explore the methods and styles of bubbles being produced across the country and why our cool climate is helping us produce sparkling wines comparable to the best in the world. We all need to resolve to drink more (Canadian) bubbles. A selection of Canadian sparkling wines will be tasted.

Panelists: Jean-Benoit Deslauriers (Benjamin Bridge), Heidi Noble (JoieFarm), Ezra Cipes (Summerhill), Paul Speck (Henry of Pelham), Jakub Lipinski (Big Head), Mick Luckhurst (Road 13), Matt Dumayne (OCP), Barb Philip MW (BCLDB & Barbariain Consulting)

Moderator: Michaela Morris (Michaela Morris is a wine writer, educator and presenter based in Vancouver, Canada. She is a WSET instructor and is in the second stage of her Masters of Wine studies).
