“I promised myself I would return to Tuscany and make the best wine in Italy.” —Pierluigi (Louie) Tolaini (1936–2020) When Louie Tolaini left his Tuscan home in the late 1950s to emigrate to Canada, he hoped for a better life in a new place. What he achieved was a life that built a better world. We celebrate the visionary who built the unparalleled Canadian transport company, TransX; who returned to his home region of Tuscany to create the incomparable Tolaini Estate wines; and who inspired his daughter, Tina Jones, to have the vision to build great teams, work hard, and continually reach for excellence.
