Your Wine Dinner Host
Peter Boyd, Sommelier
Peter was first bitten by the wine bug in the early 1980s and has been pursuing it ever since. In 1986, he followed the bug to France where he traveled extensively, studying wines and vines, before settling down to live in the Southern Rhône for a year.
Asked by Derek and Harsh to host Pukka’s wine dinner events, Peter eagerly agreed because of the fascinating challenge of matching wine to this, the most complex of all cuisines.
In addition to Pukka, Peter also consults on a number of other Toronto establishments’ wine lists, and has written about food, wine and pop culture for Canadian magazines. He has taught the ISG Sommelier Diploma course in Toronto, the highest level of instruction in Canada, for the International Sommelier Guild. As well, he plays jazz/blues guitar in local clubs and sessions, and has raised two excellent children.
