La Grande Dégustation de Montréal

La Grande Dégustation de Montréal is a wine and spirits show built around tastings, with producers and importing agencies from many countries presenting their products. It is held once a year and is organized by the Association québécoise des agences de vins, bières et spiritueux.

Visitors taste wines, spirits and cocktails with coupons loaded on a smart bracelet, and can meet producers in person. Purchases are made through the SAQ app, which visitors use to scan bottles, build a cart and pay when the event ends. The offer includes private imports sold by the bottle and products brought in specially for the show.

A session for industry professionals and media is held next to the public days, and featured wine regions are highlighted with dedicated stands.

Torres, Concha y Toro, Chapoutier, Guigal, Gérard Bertrand, Ruffino, Bacardi, Rémy Cointreau, Hendrick's and Inniskillin, alongside wine agencies and Quebec distilleries and cider producers.
