Our Wines

Real wine is what we love -- wines that are a reflection of a place and a time, from grapes grown with love and respect for the land.

Please come in to our wine boutique and allow us to help you select from our private import collection. We've also got great ideas for gifts! Please note that alcohol purchases must be accompanied by food.

Soif is recommended by
Star Wine List, Le guide des grands bars Ă  vin et restaurants Ă  vin Ă  Gatineau.

About

SOIF Bar Ă  Vin is a true wine bar, where wine is our focus. Our concise but ever-changing list offers authentic wines, wines that speak of a place, with a focus on organic and biodynamic growing practices. Natural and real wines made by passionate people!

But wine wouldn’t be the same without food! And they both make each other better. SOIF has a full kitchen and offers an award-winning menu of small and sharing plates, allowing guests to grab a bite or have a full meal. The food is purposely simple: great ingredients and simple preparations, to let flavors shine through and be very wine-friendly.

VĂ©ronique Rivest, the sommelier-owner, is one of the most respected sommeliers in Canada and abroad. She was the first woman to reach the podium at the World’s Best Sommelier Competition, placing 2nd in Tokyo in March 2013.

SOIF is all about pleasure: the pleasure of discovering new wines, of tasting, exploring, learning and sharing. All in a very laid back, friendly and fun atmosphere.
