Hosted by Sommelier Shomari Smoak

BayTowne Wine & Spirits

From the crisp, flinty wines of Chablis to the rich, golden pours of California, Chardonnay has proven itself the ultimate world traveler. It's a grape that wears many accents - sometimes lean and mineral, sometimes creamy and lush - depending entirely on where it's grown and who's guiding the winemaking hand.  

Join local Sommelier Shomari Smoak as he leads a globe-spanning exploration of Chardonnay's many expressions. You'll taste your way through Old World elegance and New World generosity, learning how climate, soil, and oak transform the world's most famous white grape. 

Whether you're a Burgundy devotee or a buttery-Chard believer, this is your chance to discover how one grape can tell so many stories.
