Overview

The Montreal branch of the IWFS was founded in 1963 and has currently over 125 members – singles and couples. The branch is dedicated to enjoying the world of fine wines and the exciting Montreal restaurant scene and sharing what we have learned with others. Some members are not wine and food experts, but rather people who enjoy sharing the pleasure of the table with others. The club organises 8-9 events per year, including two black tie dinners. Attendance is open to members and guests. Typically between forty and sixty people attend each event.

The branch is formally constituted and is led by a Board of Directors that meets two times per year to plan events. Our cellar was started in the mid 1980’s and today has over 500 bottles. The cellar committee meets several times per year to taste new wines and choose those to be acquired.  A list of recently acquired wines is available under the “documents” section. The club also publishes a quarterly newsletter –the Magnum.
