Why Join?
We look forward to seeing you at the Winetaster Events this Year!
Wine Lovers Unite! Join Winetasters Today!
Winetasters is a group of people who love wine and enjoy the opportunity to taste iconic wines from around the world, as well as explore lesser-known wines that may be on the path to iconic status.
Members are allowed to bring one guest at member prices through the use of a discount coupon which is unique for each event. The same guest may only come to a maximum of 2 events during the membership year.
Our tastings cover established regions, like Bordeaux and Burgundy, as well as up-and-coming, or re-vitalized, regions like Priorat or Argentina. Every tasting and dinner gives you the opportunity to come together with fellow wine enthusiasts to share your passion.
Winetasters provides Members with Benefits such as:
Unrivaled tastings – Keeping our own cellar (almost 3000 bottles) not only gives us a unique selection of wines for our tastings but also lets us offer tastings at a very reasonable cost to our members, as we do not have to bear the burden of the current market prices. We are a not-for-profit organization.
Ultra-Premium Tastings – This new class of events is just that – exceptional wines of high quality and rarity that command high prices. These events are to reward our regular members who, accordingly, will get priority to “front of the line” early sign up and a break on pricing. Subject to space nearer the date, others may be able to sign up at full market price. The first one will be in March 2023, Bordeaux 1995 featuring wines such as Haut-Brion, Cheval-Blanc, Leoville-Las-Cases and more. Future events include Dunn, Vega Sicilia, Domaine Dujac, Guigal.
Coupon allowing a member to bring one guest at member pricing.
Networking – opportunities to meet fellow wine enthusiasts and collectors who want to share and compare experiences with other members.
Education – most tastings are led by wine professionals with specialized knowledge of the wines included in the tasting. They share their personal knowledge as background to the tastings and then discuss their own notes on the blind tasting itself.
Dinners – Winetasters holds dinners where interesting menus are carefully paired with wines, including wines selected from our cellar, as well as specially bought for the event.
Our tasting events are held on the fourth Wednesday of each month from September through June.
Membership cost $100 per year (plus HST) = $113 before September 1, 2024. $120 per year (plus HST) = $135.60 after, August 31, 2024.
This fee covers some of the fixed costs of operating the club including the cost of storage for our wine cellar and insurance.
