I import wine from around the world and find amazing wine that is an expression of culture, place and time. I uncover the secrets of wine the world is yet to discover.
I enjoy working with the small farm vineyards who have the utmost respect for nature, who have embraced the harmony between earth and vine.
Canada is my home and as an ambassador I share the treasures both from around the world and from right here in my backyard in British Columbia.

Montecucco, located in the Maremma region of southwestern Tuscany, is an ancient viticultural area, dating to 800 B.C. Yet, despite its long history, it has only been a classified wine-producing region for 20 years, receiving its DOC status in 1998 and DOCG designation in 2011. What’s interesting to note is that Montecucco lies directly across the Orcia river from Montalcino, home to one of Italy’s greatest wines, Brunello di Montalcino. The Sangiovese-based wines of Montecucco will remind you of a Brunello, but with their own distinct flavors — and with a much lower price tag!
