When we moved to Toronto, we wanted to meet like-minded people who enjoyed food and wine. We’ve been members of other food and wine organizations around the world and were so excited to find the Toronto chapter of IW&FS. We’ve been able to eat at private dinners at some of Toronto’s best restaurants and sample exclusive wines you can’t find anywhere else in Canada. Best of all, we met great people who we’ve shared many lovely evenings with.

What I love most about IWFS, is the camaraderie – and, of course, the wine cellar!

The great discovery when you join the IW&FS is your taste buds. It’s a little like hiring a personal trainer. Yes, you’ve exercised all your life but, who knew you had muscles in all those places!  The wonderful thing about sampling and savouring wines that have rested for years in the IW&FS cellar is that your palate is spoiled forever.  How great is that?!
