Serving Up Style: Creating Endless Possibilities for Canada ' s Restaurants
Lance Kingma & Robb Denomme, Co-Founders
For the past 15 years the name“ Genuwine Cellars” has been passed from mouth to mouth as more and more people take notice of the private and public sculptures created by this Canadian-born company. Traditionally wine cellars have been a residential feature, often a focal point on a house tour at a party:“ And down here is our wine cellar …”
But, oddly enough, we are starting to see more and more commercial projects being submitted to the Design Loft at Genuwine. And why not? Every restaurant that serves anything from Ice Wine to Dom Perignon needs to protect and preserve their vintages in a safe, reliable and beautifully crafted cabinet or wine vault. The last thing you want to serve your cliental is spoiled Bordeaux. Many of the brand new restaurants rising up in the Winnipeg area are coming to this realization and calling on the team at Genuwine to create their latest masterpiece – Wasabi, Bellisimo and The Current have already followed suit. But it’ s not just in the restaurants around the‘ Peg where you can find a Vintage Vault designed and built by Genuwine.
Next time you’ re in Toronto, go up and have lunch at the 360 Degree Restaurant at the CN Tower. There you’ ll sample wine from a Genuwine Vintage Vault that has the honour of being the world’ s highest wine cellar. Skiing in Banff? You can drink from a wine vault by Genuwine at the Banff Springs Hotel, one of the world’ s most beautiful restaurants and resorts. Genuwine’ s extensive commercial resume includes other prestigious restaurants and hotels across Canada like the Prince of Wales Hotel, the Air Canada Centre in Toronto and the University of British Columbia.
So, next time you’ re eating out take notice of the wine vault you’ re waiter pulls your bottle of Bordeaux out of. It could just be one of the newest, innovative designs from the team at Genuwine.
