Countdown to the Somm Showdown!
A Note from Somm Showdown
Moderator Calvin Webster
|
It is almost time for the inaugural Somm Showdown! I am thrilled to be part of this exciting event at Nissan Stadium on November 10. Collaborating with the Nashville Wine Auction team to bring this unique event to life has been a pleasure. Nashville is a growing wine market with a lot of up-and-coming wine professionals, which makes it the perfect place for a competition like the Somm Showdown. There's nothing like some friendly competition to make everyone stronger, all while raising money for a good cause! Â

Meet our Inaugural Somm Showdown contestants!

Here at Nashville Wine Auction, we love our Sommeliers. We truly could not do the work we do without them. In November, the Nashville Wine Auction is giving six talented Sommelier contestants a chance to show off their skills through a series of challenges. The winning Sommelier will be crowned the first-ever Nashville Wine Auction Somm Showdown champion. Meet all six contestants in this month's blog!Â
