Chronicles of Cork: Marcel Opens an 1863 Offley Port with a Feather
Marcel Bregstein, CCM/Sommelier
Assistant General Manager, Toronto Hunt Club
What do you do when you’re asked to open a $20,000 bottle of 1863 Vintage Port in front of 30 members of the wine media? If you’re Marcel Bregstein, you reach for a pair of glowing Port tongs—and an ice-cold Scarlet Macaw feather. In this memorable Chronicles of Cork story, Marcel takes us back to the 2003 PMA Chairman’s Gala at The Toronto Hunt, where a centuries-old bottle, a daring idea, and a very nervous sommelier came together for one unforgettable moment. It’s a story about wine, history, a little bit of risk, and the unexpected moments that become the stories we remember.
