Another Opimian partner, Michael Palij MW, of Winetraders, is a Canadian living in England. He specializes in Italian wines and has introduced Opimian to some truly special producers including the Zucchetto family, makers of premium Prosecco and Clavesana in Piemonte who featured in the recent CWEB20 offering. But I don’t want this to sound like cronyism. The very essence of an MW is to act with integrity and honesty. Indeed, on becoming a Master of Wine, we are required to sign a code of conduct to this effect and to contribute to the mission of the Institute of Masters of Wine to promote excellence, interaction and learning across the global wine community. Opimian is the only Canadian wine club to have a Consultant Master of Wine and I am honoured to be it. Using my wine network, my aim is to bring members a curated range of exclusive wines to suit all occasions and tastes whatever your budget. All the wines go through the same rigorous tasting evaluation to select those offering the best quality and value for money. I try to spread the love by sharing my experiences, the personality of each wine and the stories behind them. I really want you to enjoy Opimian wines and be inspired to discover more!
