Bâtonnage Forum

The Forum is our namesake and the heart of Bâtonnage. Founded by Stevie Stacionis and Sarah Bray, Bâtonnage began as a platform for having honest, sometimes difficult conversations with women in wine. Eight years later, the Forum continues that mission: bringing together bold, thoughtful voices from the wine industry and other creative spaces to gather, connect, challenge one another, and empower the community.
