The 5th
Annual Chardonnay Symposium Continues to
Carryout the Mission of the Events
Founders
May 6, 2014 (Pismo Beach, CA): The 5th Annual Chardonnay
Symposium (TCS) hosted by Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa in Pismo
Beach, from May 16-18, 2014, today announced that this year’s TCS
will continue to carryout the mission of the event’s founders despite the
change in venue and ownership. As the country’s premier event for education and
celebration of Chardonnay wines, the mission of TCS remains that of bringing together
Chardonnay producers, winemakers, sommeliers, and wine journalists, as well as
both food and wine enthusiasts from all over the world, for an in-depth
exploration of the world's favorite grape. Now, into its 5th year,
TCS participants can expect the same, esoteric and educational experience, in
the exploration of the world’s most popular grape varietal.
“We strongly believe in keeping this event
alive,” says Brian
Talley, Owner and Winegrower of Talley
Vineyards, and TCS Industry Consultant. “Since the event was founded by
the Santa Maria Valley Vintners Association, we’ve focused on maintaining their
momentum by welcoming back the loyal following of the past four years, as well
as the newcomers who want to participate and learn more about Chardonnay. Moreover, we are expanding the scope of wines
that will be represented, all the way from Santa Barbara to Napa Valley and
Sonoma County, in order to give a more comprehensive look at Chardonnay.”
