14 of British Columbia’s top sommeliers gathered for a challenging day of wine competition to determine the “Best Sommelier of BC”. The contest was the first of its kind in the province, and Chambar’s Jason Yamasaki was crowned inaugural champion.

Some wine pairings are so archetypal they are recognized around the world: Champagne and caviar, port and Stilton, Cabernet and steak- but some wine couplings extend beyond flavour profiles.
