Wine List
Home to more than 20,000 bottles, the wine cellar at the Bearfoot Bistro is unlike any other you have experienced.
A staircase drops dramatically from the centre of our dinning room into the temperature and humidity controlled cellar. And while it is the perfect environment to store wine, it is also a fantastic place to participate in the ancient ritual of sabering a bottle of champagne with our proprietor, Andre St Jacques. Andre just so happens to be the Guinness World Record holder for sabering champagne – 21 bottles in under a minute.
Our cellar houses over 2,100 different labels and some of the most impressive verticals in the world, including 20 years of Château Mouton-Rothschild. But, what truly sets us apart is our incredible selection of champagne, matched only by our guests' insatiable desire for bubbly - we sell more champagne than any other restaurant in Canada. Our wine list boasts an incredibly diverse selection of wine from around the world including trophies like the 1964 Domaine De La Romanée-Conti for $20,000 or the 1914 Möet & Chandon, Brut Impérial.
