The better we advise you, the better we inspire you

The Grand Connoisseur client is fond of everything related to the wine world; he is driven by insatiable curiosity: Meetings and tastings with actors in the field, visits to the most renowned estates and châteaux and looking for the most prestigious wines to complete his cellar are some of the activities he indulges in to feed his interest.

Since the SAQ Inspire experience allows us to better understand your preferences, we are pleased to offer clients who qualify as Grand Connoisseurs tailor-made services that meet their expectations.

The minimum annual purchase threshold is $25,000, with an average price of $75 per bottle to be a Grand Connoisseur client*.

* Customers targeted by the SAQ are under no obligation to accept the "Grand Connoisseurs" service offer.
