Special Wine Tasting Events at The Fine Wine Reserve
In
conjunction with top agents and wineries, The Fine Wine Reserve organizes
high-end wine tastings for our clients. For a schedule of our upcoming
events, please click on
Event Schedule (requires Adobe Acrobat). Clients with Tasting Room
Memberships should also refer to this schedule to confirm availability for
“drop-in” use on any particular evening.
Tasting
events for our clients cater to their unique interests and discerning
tastes. “General list” wines tend to be avoided. Expect rare, collectible,
age-worthy and/or world class product**.
Expect
the evening to be a “no-nonsense” one – interesting and worthwhile product
enjoyed by a small intimate gathering of like-minded collectors and
enthusiasts. Limits are placed on the number of guests to ensure your
visit will be informative, with sufficient one-on-one time with the
product and people featured at the event. Wine tastings are usually
offered over two time slots: around 4:00pm for those wanting to be home
for dinner, and around 6:00pm for those with more time.
All
Fine Wine Reserve tastings are private events, and closed to the general
public. Events are open to clients of The Fine Wine Reserve (past and
present), their guests, and guests of the co-host(s). Clients with Private
Cellaring or Custodial Cellaring accounts are both invited. Tasting Room
Membership is not required to attend these special events.
Events are usually posted 2
months in advance. Space is limited and events sell out quickly. All
events are RSVP at 416-593-9463 with at least 10 days notice. Last minute
calls will be accommodated whenever possible. All clients of The Fine Wine
Reserve should also keep in mind that the Tasting Room is available for
their own private event at no charge.
**
The Fine Wine Reserve is a strong believer in the potential of the
Canadian Wine industry. Within the larger industry, there is a small but
growing segment of ultra high-end product deemed cellar-worthy and
collectable. Having some influence with the product’s target market, The
Fine Wine Reserve is committed to help raise awareness for this product.
As such, we will feature quality wines from selected Canadian producers
from time to time. Although the offerings may not be on par with the DRC
in your collections, again, don’t expect “general list” at these events.
Expect premium class wines, and mid-range limited releases (niche market)
that can be very difficult to obtain or sample.
