Your host, Carl Boucher, is a wine expert who has always found inspiration in the stories and people behind the world’s most interesting wines. For the past 20 years, Carl’s curiosity and passion has helped him lead the wine menus for some of the top restaurants in the world, as well as curate wines for collectors and private cellars.  He also brought the world of wine on board at WestJet, with new flavours, new countries and wine regions, creating a wine program with the same personality as the airline.

Carl will lead you through an information-rich tasting, sharing the story of the wines and insights about our winemaking practices.
