​​​Tuesday, February 18 - World of Merlot    Exploring the World, One Merlot at a Time

One of the most widely planted grape varieties in the world, Merlot plays a significant role in many of the world's top wine regions. Originating from Bordeaux, where it is the star of the right bank (think wines that tend to be rich and opulent), Merlot has developed strong followings in California (lush and fruit-forward), Italy (Super Tuscans with full-bodied and elegant), and other regions. With examples from Bordeaux, California, Italy, Washington State, and British Columbia this event will provide you with a taste of Merlot from around the globe.

Tuesday, March 18 - Etna Rosso

Etna Rosso wines are unique, elegant expressions of Sicily's volcanic terroir. Their complexity, minerality, and aging potential make them increasingly sought-after by wine enthusiasts.

This event is your opportunity to explore the wines from an exciting region.

Tuesday, April 15- 50th Anniversary Dinner - Joint event with Winetasters of Toronto

In 2025, your Toronto Vintners Club will turn 50 years young. TVC was so successful that the club's size overwhelmed available venues and spawned a new club that became Winetasters of Toronto. Should we celebrate longevity? Memories? A sense of community? Founders, past, and present members? Wine itself? How about we celebrate all of these attributes. For 50 years, members have watched and learned about the evolution of the wine world — from changing trends to new wine regions and winemaking techniques. This anniversary celebrates the club’s past, present, and future role in fostering a deeper appreciation of wine in our community. Come join us for a special anniversary dinner.

Tuesday, May 13 - Rioja

Red wines from Rioja, Spain's most famous wine region, are renowned for their balance, elegance, and aging potential. The region has a long winemaking tradition and is known for producing structured and complex red wines, particularly those made from Tempranillo, the star grape of the area. Rioja has two faces, some wineries using traditional methods of long oak aging and others that are using modern wine making methods that focus on freshness. Your tasting will focus on traditional Rioja producers. Expect wines that have notes of vanilla, coconut, cinnamon, clove, and more savoury elements like tobacco, leather, and earthy tones.

Tuesday, June 17 - 2017 White Bordeaux

For red wines, 2017 was a tough year for Bordeaux. It's a different story for the region's white wine, however. The cooler, steady conditions in 2017 resulted in white wines with excellent freshness and vibrant acidity. These wines are typically crisp and lively, showcasing purity of fruit. Typically a blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon, white Bordeaux wines need time in the cellar to come together and shine. At 8 years old your white Bordeaux is ready to shine and delight.

Tuesday, September 16, 2015 Burgundy

What needs to be said about the world's most sought after red wines. Let's focus on the vintage. Critics have consistently praised the 2015 red Burgundies for their combination of power, elegance, and age-worthiness. Some consider the 2015 vintage among the finest vintages of recent history, and make comparisons to other top years like 2005, 2009, and 2010. A decade has passed since these grapes were harvested and it's time to check in on everything that vintage has to offer.

Wednesday, October 21 - Vintage VS Non-Vintage Champagne - Joint event with Winetasters of Toronto

​You may have noticed that many bottles of champagne do not have a vintage on the label while others have this disclosure. Non-vintage champagnes are blends from multiple vintages or could be a specific vintage blended with wines the producer holds in reserve. This event will contrast vintage and non-vintage champagnes from selected producers and is your opportunity to determine if there is a style that you prefer.

Tuesday, November 18 - 2007 Barolo

Many critics praised the 2007 vintage for its balance between fruitiness and structure. Some found it to be a vintage that showcases Nebbiolo’s elegance, without the overwhelming austerity sometimes found in Barolo. Your tasting will explore 8 aged Barolos that are in a fantastic drinking window. Stay tuned for an extra-special surprise on a Unicorn wine that will be included in this event. This tasting will be a fitting closure to our 50th season.​​
