Patrick Barrelet is the artist behind the wines. A part owner, Patrick has been the head wine meister since day one with a degree in Oenology from the University of Dijon in Burgundy, France, one of the great wine-producing regions in the world. He majored in Pinot Noir, which is a way better major than any other I’ve ever heard of. He is an award winning wine maker many times over and is tolerant over our lack of appreciation of Canadian pastimes, like curling.
Cassandra Martin splits her time between all of our locations, which is perfect given her split personality. You might see her at anything and everywhere having to do with Snow Farm because, foolishly, she is actually interested in all aspects of the business – from winemaking to retail. Because everyone at Snow Farm gets to choose his or her own job title, Cassandra took full advantage of the glaring omission and is now Queen of Canada. So treat her with respect and minors, don’t even think about using a fake I.D.; not only does Cassandra take her role as Queen of Canada seriously, but she is also a former marine.
Alex Lane came with the land. Seriously. We bought the land for the vineyard and winery from his grandparents, Fred and Gladys. I neglected to read the fine print in the sales agreement that said that Alex was an agricultural easement that ran with the land. So, here is and here he shall remain. The good news is he won’t bite if you want to feed him, but bring plenty of Hot Pockets.
