Inspire the next generation of sommeliers<\/b><\/h1>\n

Choosing a career as a sommelier is not always an obvious choice for those starting out in the world of work, especially in the UK.<\/h3>\n

However, joining a team of sommeliers at restaurants around the country can be very rewarding as it opens up the world of wine, unearths its passionate people and reveals the amazing vineyards of the world.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve teamed up with one of the UK’s leading sommeliers Charles Carron Brown to nurture a new generation of sommeliers in UK with the launch of FUTURE SOMMELIER 2026<\/b>.<\/p>\n

The search is on for young staff members, those aged 18 and over, who are about to begin or have just begun working in hospitality, and would like the opportunity to discover more and begin their journey to learn about the opportunities in wine and drinks service.<\/p>\n

The Future Sommelier initiative aims toinspire the next generation. An inclusive initiative set up to open doors to the world of drinks for young people in the UK and create opportunities for hospitality to attract talented individuals. Candidates from diverse backgrounds are welcomed.<\/p>\n

Launched in Spring 2026 the first Future Sommelier outreach sessions will take place in the coming months.<\/p>\n
