Learn who they are and find out what the judges considered when awarding the victory to today&#039;s Best Sommelier of the Americas. What is the Best Sommelier of the Americas competition? This regional competition began in 2004 with the goal of highlighting important figures from this continent. There are also competitions for Europe and Asia, among others, in which the goal is to find the Best Sommelier of each continent. Countries such as Argentina, Paraguay, Ecuador, Uruguay, Panama, the Dominican Republic, Peru, and Chile, among others, also participated; due to visa issues, representatives from Cuba and Bolivia were unable to attend. Representatives are typically made up of local winners from each country, but as a requirement, they must belong to a sommelier association affiliated with ASI (Association de la Sommellerie Internationale), the event&#039;s organizer. After a display of composure, Canadian representative Joris Gutierrez Garcia was named the 2025 Best Sommelier of the Americas in its seventh edition. Gutierrez, born in Montreal, works at the Le Club Chasse et P\u00eache restaurant in the same city, as well as at the importer Agence Pirates, which specializes in French wines.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3721,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3720","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-competencias","category-sommeliers"],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2.png",1920,1080,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-150x150.png",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-300x169.png",300,169,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-768x432.png",768,432,true],"large":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-1024x576.png",1024,576,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-1536x864.png",1536,864,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2.png",1920,1080,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-18x10.png",18,10,true],"bdpp-medium":["https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/o-2-640x480.png",640,480,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"SommeliersRD","author_link":"https:\/\/sommeliersrd.com\/en\/author\/solucionesinabagmail-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Realizada en Santa Rosa, California, Estados Unidos, la m\u00e1s reciente edici\u00f3n del concurso Best Sommelier of the Americas ya tiene un claro ganador.
