“One day, a lady called me to ask for two bed bases for a party she was organizing. That just goes to show how much the vocabulary associated with our profession was still a mystery to the average person!”

This profession, that of sommelier, was virtually nonexistent in Quebec in the 1970s, and Jacques Orhon helped to popularize it. In this extraordinary odyssey, glamorous but not always, the affable globetrotter reveals himself with great intimacy. By recounting his rich travels and numerous encounters, he subtly traces the history of sommellerie in Quebec. Captivating... and intoxicating!
