The day
The best wine lists start with the best sommeliers
A day made for sommeliers and the teams behind great wine lists. Grow your craft, meet people who love wine as much as you do, and leave with the ideas and connections to make your list one guests remember. Because the freedom to pour any wine, by the glass, changes what's possible for everyone at the table.
I created Coravin to give wine lovers the freedom to pour any wine, any time, in any amount. The Symposium grew from that same belief: the people who serve wine deserve the freedom to grow, to connect, and to lead. I can’t wait to welcome you — spend the day with us, and let’s build better wine programmes together.
