A Celebration of Tradition, Heritage, and New Beginnings
We are proud to unveil our participation in Top Drop 2026, a carefully curated showcase of exceptional producers that embody the spirit of authenticity, craftsmanship, and regional expression.

and Innovation

KIR-YIANNI and DOMAINE SIGALAS
From the dramatic landscapes of Greece, we are honoured to present Kir-Yianni and Domaine Sigalas. Now united under the stewardship of the Kir-Yianni family, these two iconic estates represent a powerful synergy between heritage and forward-thinking winemaking. Kir-Yianni continues to champion indigenous varieties with precision and elegance, while Sigalas—renowned for its mastery of Santorini’s volcanic terroir—delivers wines of striking minerality and depth. Together, they offer a compelling narrative of evolution, unity, and uncompromising quality.
We are especially excited to welcome Lambros Papadimitriou, Director of Sales & Marketing of Kir-Yianni, General Manager of Domaine Sigalas, to Vancouver for the very first time. His presence marks a rare opportunity to experience firsthand the philosophy and passion driving this new chapter in Greek winemaking.

France: Tradition Revisited,
Excellence Reaffirmed
CHÂTEAU ROQUEFORT and DOMAINE DUSEIGNEUR
From the heart of France, we proudly feature Château Roquefort of Bordeaux and Domaine Duseigneur of Châteauneuf-du-Pape—two estates rooted in tradition, yet continuously evolving.
Representing Château Roquefort is Camille Giai, Export Manager and a trusted voice of the estate for over a decade. His deep connection with the family allows him to faithfully convey their vision and philosophy. Roquefort’s wines are uniquely shaped by a subsoil rich in ancient oyster fossils, imparting a distinctive minerality and freshness that sets them apart within Bordeaux.
DOMAINE DUSEIGNEUR
Bernard Duseigneur, owner and winemaker of Domaine Duseigneur, returns to Vancouver after several years. Many will remember his last visit during the Vancouver International Wine Festival’s French feature. His long-awaited return brings not only new vintages, but also a deeper expression of the Rhône Valley’s timeless character—power, elegance, and terroir-driven complexity.
His dedication to organic and biodynamic farming has earned him widespread respect, not only within his home region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, but also among wine communities around the world who value authenticity, sustainability, and a true sense of place in every glass.
Discover What’s New
Top Drop 2026 is more than a tasting—it is an invitation to explore new labels, new vintages, and renewed identities. Each wine tells a story of place, people, and purpose. From volcanic soils to fossil-rich limestone, from family legacies to modern reinterpretations, this year’s selection promises depth, character, and excitement in every glass.
Join us as we bring together these exceptional producers for an unforgettable experience—where passion meets provenance, and every pour tells a new story.
