This edition of Folio.YVR Luxury Lifestyle
M agazine is a true celebration of artistry,
elegance, and the finer things in life. As I reflect
on the stories gathered, I am inspired by the
remarkable individuals, extraordinary creations,
and unique experiences that define a life well
lived. Each feature offers a glimpse into our
unique West Coast lifestyle, where 'slow
everything' is appreciated.
I share the journey of Tanya Kim, a Canadian
media icon who has reinvented herself as a
wellness advocate, mindset coach, and
passionate champion of authenticity. Her
transformation is a beautiful reminder of the
power of resilience and self-discovery. Equally
inspiring is pianist Georgy M anterola, who
brings the stunning Fazioli Butterfly piano to
life with a performance that is as captivating as
the instrument itself. And for those who
appreciate timeless craftsmanship, the
Kihl ?Yahda Christian White: M aster Haida
Artist exhibition at the Bill Reid Gallery offers
a profound exploration of Haida culture and
artistry.
From the celestial beauty of Tiffany & Co.?s
Blue Book 20 24: Tiffany Céleste collection, the
thrill of driving the M cLaren 750 S, sporting
Hublot?s Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada, and
if you are dreaming of a breathtaking West
Coast escape, the $33,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 Princess
Louisa Lodge, near BC's Chatterbox Falls,
offered through Faith Wilson (Christie?s
International Real Estate), might just capture
your imagination.
This issue also highlights remarkable talents
like Bobo Zhao, whose award-winning
Beige Weddings photography captures the
essence of love in both local and international
settings. Fine artist Ann Goldberg is another
standout, and I am thrilled to feature her vibrant
' Red Peonies in Chelsea' on our cover. Her
work is bold, lush, and a perfect representation
of the creativity we celebrate in these pages.
A mere 24 hours in Las Vegas unfolded into an
exploration of some of the world?s most
sophisticated cigar lounges. From the chic
elegance of eight Lounge at Resorts World
to the iconic allure of Davidoff of Geneva and
the timeless sophistication of M ontecristo
Cigar Bar at Caesars Palace, each destination
exudes a seamless blend of relaxation and
refinement, offering an experience as indulgent
as it is memorable.
On the topic of indulgence, Stefano Ricci?s
ultra-luxury wine and whisky collections, fittingly
named N ectar of the Gods and Uisge Beatha,
are truly remarkable, as are M ission Hill Family
Estate?s perfect 10 0 -point Oculus 20 20 and
Hayw ire Winery?s Lunar Red Wine, crafted to
honour the Year of the Snake while supporting
the Vancouver Chinatow n Foundation.
I hope you enjoy this issue as much as I have
enjoyed putting it together. These stories reflect
the beauty, passion, and craftsmanship that
elevate everyday life into something
extraordinary. Enjoy the journey.

JOURNEY

TA NYA K IM | A JOURNEY OF RESILIENCE
T
KTanya
Kim?s journey has been one of
transformation, courage, and
authenticity.
From her early days as a competitive
dancer to her standout roles in
Canadian media, her story is not just
about professional accolades? it is
about personal growth and
embracing new opportunities.

013

FROM DAN CE TO M EDIA
Born and raised in Sault Ste. M arie,
Ontario, Tanya's first passion was the arts.
She began dancing at the age of four and
soon became a force to be reckoned with
in the competitive dance world, even
earning the title of Petite M iss Dance of
Canada.
Despite her childhood dream of becoming
an " In Living Color" Fly Girl, it was her love
for storytelling that ultimately led her to
broadcast journalism.
After completing her journalism degree at
Toronto M etropolitan University, Tanya
entered the media scene, quickly making a
name for herself as a fresh voice in
entertainment.
Over the years, she co-anchored CTV?s
ETALK and hosted Entertainment City,
where she had the privilege of interviewing
Hollywood's biggest stars (David Bow ie,
Janet Jackson, Rihanna, George Clooney,
Brad Pitt, Beyoncé), covering red carpets
(Academy Aw ards, Grammy Aw ards,
Cannes Film Festival), and reporting on
global events (Kate' s Royal Wedding,
20 10 Olympic Winter Games).
Tanya?s charisma and grace captured the
attention of millions, earning her a place as
one of Canada?s most beloved media
personalities.
A LIFE- ALTERIN G SETBACK
In 20 14, Tanya faced an unexpected and
difficult setback when she was let go from
CTV's Etalk.
Years later in 20 19, she would experience
yet another layoff, this time from
Entertainment City (CityTV).
Although these moments in her career were
deeply painful, they marked a turning point
that redefined her purpose.
Tanya reflects, ?That horrible day back in
20 14 (Etalk) is forever etched in my
memory, but as I write this today, I am
grateful it happened. It forced me to see
that life is full of possibilities and
opportunities if you are open to them.?
This personal and professional shift sparked
a journey tow ard self- discovery and a
renewed passion for wellness and
empowerment.
Tanya?s experiences taught her that true
happiness comes from embracing
vulnerability and taking chances.
Her path moved from the w orld of media
to the w orld of w ellness, where she began
to focus on helping others live their best
lives.

015
THE POWER OF AUTHEN TICITY
As Tanya continued her journey, she
became more committed to empowering
others through self-love and mindfulness.
A mindset and self- love coach, Tanya
inspires individuals to embrace their fullest
potential by practicing kindness toward
themselves and others.
She shares, ?Authenticity is key. Whether
you are in front of a camera or just living
your daily life, being your true self will
help you connect with others and keep
your heart happy.?
Her approach to wellness is holistic,
embracing both the physical and
emotional aspects of health. Tanya
prioritizes movement, whether it is through
Reformer Pilates, boxing classes, or
strength training, but she also knows the
importance of recovery.
?Movement is medicine to me,? she says.
Her love for contrast therapy (alternating
between hot saunas and ice baths) not
only helps her body recover but also
boosts her mental clarity.
A LOVE FOR DOGS
Tanya?s heart extends beyond herself and
her career; it is also deeply committed to
animal welfare. As an advocate for bully
breeds and an Ambassador for the
Ontario Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals (OSPCA), she uses her
platform to spread awareness about the
importance of compassion toward
animals.
Her Emotional Support Animal,
M iss Frankie, is a cherished companion
who brings joy and comfort to Tanya?s life.
Her commitment to community is reflected
in her volunteer and ambassador work
with organizations like the Centre for
Addiction and M ental Health (CAM H)
and OSPCA, which aim to support people
in need and give dogs a second chance
at a life they deserve, respectively.
WELLN ESS & M IN DFULN ESS
In addition to her work with animals,
Tanya?s journey has been deeply tied to
mental and emotional w ell- being .
M editation is a daily ritual that helps her
stay grounded, and she often seeks solace
in nature with Miss Frankie.
Tanya cherishes her quiet time, whether
she is curled up w ith a book or enjoying a
true- crime documentary. These moments
of peace and self-reflection help her
maintain the balance she so values.
As a coach, Tanya encourages others to
embrace mindfulness practices and
prioritize their health and happiness.
Her approach emphasizes a deep
connection to oneself, both mentally and
physically. Tanya believes that self-care is
about more than just pampering; it is
about fostering a healthy relationship with
your body and mind, one that nurtures
growth and healing.

017
GIVIN G BACK
Tanya?s heart for service extends beyond
her advocacy for animals. She actively
supports various charitable causes,
including the Unite For Change Canada
" Performing Arts In The Spotlight Fund,"
which helps keep the arts thriving, and
Humane Society International Canada, an
organization dedicated to animal
protection. Giving back is a core value for
Tanya, and she continually looks for ways to
make a positive impact in her community.
Her partnerships with brands like Adidas,
M onogram Canada, Samsung Canada,
Dermalogica, and SkinCeuticals reflect
her diverse interests and her influence in
both the wellness and lifestyle industries.
Tanya is not just a media personality; she is
a trusted ambassador for brands that align
with her values of authenticity and wellness.
TAN YA' S VISION
Looking ahead, Tanya is excited about the
future and the endless possibilities that
await. She envisions combining her love for
storytelling and w ellness to create a show
that empowers others to live healthier,
happier lives. Whether through digital
platforms or broadcast TV, Tanya plans to
continue sharing her journey and spreading
positivity.
Another dream of hers is to establish
a w ellness hub? an oasis for the body,
mind, and soul. Tanya imagines a space
where people can come to relax, heal,
and grow.
A beachfront property outside of Canada is
also on her radar, where she and her pup(s)
can enjoy the serenity of nature and live in
harmony with the environment.
As a self-proclaimed romantic, Tanya also
looks forward to meeting someone who
shares her heart-driven approach to life.
?Live in the energy of ' YES!'? because we
are all worthy of the beautiful lives we
dream of creating,? she says.
WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS
Tanya Kim?s journey is one of resilience,
transformation, and passion. She has
embraced her career, faced challenges
head-on, and used those moments as
catalysts for growth.
Today, she is a wellness advocate, a mindset
coach, and a champion for authenticity.
Through her work and personal life,
Tanya continues to inspire others to live
authentically, love deeply, and say
?YES? to all of life?s possibilities.

In the heart of Vancouver's vibrant arts
scene, Georgy M anterola stands as a
beacon of musical excellence. A dynamic
pianist, composer, and arranger with
over two decades of experience,
Georgy has captivated audiences with
her performances at luxury events,
prestigious venues like BC Place with
Coldplay, and bespoke musical
experiences that redefine elegance.
Her musical journey, intertwined with the
exquisite craftsmanship of the Fazioli
Butterfly Piano, is a testament to the
harmony between art and innovation.
A M ULTIFACETED TALEN T
Georgy?s versatility knows no bounds.
With a repertoire of over 1,20 0 songs,
her performances span classical, pop,
rock, jazz, and soundtracks.
Whether delivering Bridgerton-style
arrangements or crafting custom
compositions for weddings, corporate
galas, and private events, her artistry
transforms every occasion into a
memorable experience.
Her educational foundation, rooted in
the Escuela Superior de M úsica y Danza
de M onterrey and enriched by private
lessons with N atalia Tibets, has been
complemented by master classes
with luminaries like Jesús M olina and
M ichel Dalberto. This robust training
paved the way for collaborations with
the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra,
world-renowned composers like
Joe Hisaishi, and stars such as
Jordan Rudess and Jonah N ilsson
through her work with Pianote at
M usora M edia.

023
THE ORIGIN OF THE BUTTERFLY
The Fazioli Butterfly Piano is a
masterpiece born from a union of art and
engineering. Designed by the renowned
Italian piano maker Paolo Fazioli, this
piano was crafted to be a visual and
auditory marvel. Its distinctive butterfly
shape features two elegantly curved
wings that open, resembling a butterfly
in flight, enhancing the sound projection
and creating a stunning visual impact.
The piano is constructed with the finest
materials, including rare woods and
advanced acoustic components, ensuring
an unparalleled tonal quality.
The Butterfly Piano is not only an
instrument but also a symbol of artistic
innovation, often showcased in
architecturally significant spaces that
highlight its beauty.
THE FAZIOLI CON N ECTION
It was Georgy?s first encounter with the
Fazioli Butterfly Piano that ignited a
profound connection.
?When I moved to Vancouver, a couple of
friends took me downtown, specifically to
the Rogers Tow er, to show me this
stunning piano they had told me about.
We spotted it through the window, and I
couldn?t resist trying to play it. A couple of
weeks later, I eventually did? and it was
an unforgettable experience! It?s my
favourite of all the Fazioli pianos,? she
shared.
Georgy?s appreciation for Fazioli pianos
goes beyond their aesthetic allure.
?Fazioli pianos are often found in
breathtaking, architecturally stunning
spaces, and the environment adds to
their charm. The sound is exquisite, the
keys feel incredible, and the overall
design is absolutely captivating?
it?s an experience like no other. I had the
unique opportunity to be the first to
play the First Light Fazioli, which
features all black keys. It was such
a cool experience! Since I tend to focus
on everything but the keys while I play,
blending in wasn?t a challenge.?
The Butterfly Fazioli, with its unique design
and impeccable sound, holds a special
place in Georgy?s heart.
?When I played the Butterfly Fazioli,
I felt butterflies in my stomach! No,
honestly, the times I?ve played it are
always such incredible experiences?
they make me lose myself in the music,
in the best way possible.?
A PERFECT COLLABORATION
M anuel Bernaschek, owner of
Showcase Pianos, spoke highly of
Georgy?s collaboration with the
Fazioli Butterfly Piano.

025

?We chose Georgy for the Fazioli Butterfly
Piano collaboration because she is an
exceptionally talented and brilliant
musician. Her professionalism shines through
in every interaction, and her flexibility w ith
repertoire makes her an absolute joy.
Together, they redefine the harmony
between architecture, art, and music.?
A JOURN EY OF EXCELLEN CE
Georgy has achieved remarkable
accolades, including the prestigious
?Borrego de Oro?award for Cultural
Leadership in 20 17 and 23 aw ards at the
ITESM Song Composition Competitions. As
co-founder of M aya Entertainment,
alongside her partner Ruben Dela, Georgy
continues to elevate Vancouver?s music
scene by offering high- quality live music
for bespoke events.
Her journey with the Fazioli Butterfly Piano
exemplifies her commitment to excellence
and innovation. In her hands, this instrument
transcends its physical form, becoming a
vessel for emotions, stories, and memories.
Georgy Manterola and the Fazioli Butterfly
Piano are, indeed, a harmonious
masterpiece.

Located in the heart of downtown
Vancouver, the Bill Reid Gallery of
N orthw est Coast Art stands as
Canada?s only public gallery dedicated
to contemporary Indigenous art of the
N orthw est Coast. Since its opening in
M ay 20 0 8, the gallery has been a
vibrant space for celebrating the
legacies of Indigenous artists, both past
and present.
Named after the acclaimed Haida
artist Bill Reid, the gallery not only
preserves his remarkable body of work
but also serves as a platform for
emerging and established Indigenous
artists to share their stories with the
world.
Through its exhibitions, artist talks, and
workshops, the Bill Reid Gallery offers an
immersive experience that fosters a
deeper appreciation for Indigenous
cultures and values.
This winter, the Bill Reid Gallery
continues its mission with the Vancouver
premiere of Kihl ?Yahda Christian
White: M aster Haida Artist, a
retrospective honouring the life and
artistry of Christian White. Running from
February 1, 20 25, to February 1, 20 26,

decades of White?s contributions to
Haida art and culture. Visitors will
journey through his multidisciplinary
work, which spans intricate argillite
carvings, monumental sculptures,
ocean-going cedar canoes, and
exquisite gold and silver jew ellery.
Equally significant is White?s dedication
to preserving and celebrating Haida
stories, songs, and dances.

A Journey Through Art and Tradition
Curated by Sdahl ? ?aw aas Lucy Bell and
Gudangee X?ahl Kil Amelia Rea, this
exhibition highlights over 40 works by
Christian White, spanning various mediums.
Key pieces include Raven Copper Shield
(1976), crafted at age 14, and Raven
Transformation (20 22), a transformational
mask with intricate designs. The collection
also features House Box (20 24), White?s
latest bentwood creation.
A member of the Yahgulaanas Haida
Raven Clan and son of Chief Edensu,
M orris White, Christian?s work is rooted in
Haida traditions. Beginning his career at
14 by carving argillite, he has since
advanced Haida practices like pole
carving and canoe building .
Mentorship is central to the exhibition, with
contributions from eight apprentices,
including Corey Bulpitt and Allan Weir,
whose collaborative works highlight Haida
art?s evolution and White?s lasting
influence.
White co-founded the Haida Repatriation
Committee, returning over 50 0 Haida
ancestors?remains to Haida Gw aii. He
also created bentwood chests with his
apprentices for these sacred returns,
emphasizing cultural preservation.

S
RImagine stepping into the
legendary Enoteca Pinchiorri in
Florence, a space that radiates
reverence for wine, where bottles
are more than mere vessels? they
are stories, legacies, and
expressions of passion.
It was here, in 20 10 , that the
Florentine luxury brand Stefano
Ricci debuted its foray into the
world of fine wines, initiating
celebrations amongst those who
cherish both extraordinary
craftsmanship and exquisite
vintages.

s p i r i t s

081

Stefano Ricci's wine collection is not
simply a side project? it is a testament
to the brand's relentless pursuit of
perfection.
As a wine lover, you might wonder what
drives a designer known for
impeccable tailoring and opulent
accessories to craft wines. The answer
lies in Ricci's innate ability to transcend
boundaries.
Every aspect of his world is shaped by
his visionary spirit. Whether designing
silk ties or reimagining wine, he is
guided by a philosophy of quality,
elegance, and timeless beauty. His
passion for detail and deep
appreciation for artistry are palpable
in his wines, which have become an
extension of his creative identity.
?The idea was born from a discussion
between our father, Stefano, and
Giorgio Pinchiorri, owner of the
famous Enoteca in Florence, with three
M ichelin stars for over 30 years,? says
Filippo Ricci. ?We wanted to select an
exclusive cuvée and design a
prestigious bottle to enter into this
world. The success we encountered
encouraged us to move forward with
products of absolute Italian excellence.?
A SYM PHON Y OF DESIGN
Stefano Ricci?s wine journey started with
the creation of SR Wine, a collaboration
with Tenuta Sette Ponti, one of
Tuscany?s most celebrated vineyards.

083
The inaugural release was a limited run
of 750 bottles of M erlot, a wine as
refined and exclusive as Ricci's couture
creations. Over time, the collection
expanded to include Sangiovese and
international varietals, all housed in
bottles that are as much works of art as
the wines themselves.
Each wine tells a story, not only through
its terroir but also through its
presentation. From the iconic SR eagle
logo to the intricate paisley patterns
and luxurious accents on the
packaging, no detail is overlooked. The
interplay of gold, platinum, and deep
black on the labels evokes a sense of
grandeur that resonates with Ricci's
larger brand ethos.
?We try to fulfil the Stefano Ricci Man?s
desires 360 degrees,? N iccolò Ricci
explains. ?In much of the world, wine, the
fruit of the vine and man?s work, is an
important element both for the pleasure
of healthy and conscious drinking and
for socializing.?
The wines themselves are crafted with a
meticulous focus on quality. Grapes
sourced from Tuscany's Chianti region
are nurtured in soils rich with marl,
limestone, clay, and sand, creating a
perfect balance for expressive reds.
For white wine lovers, Ricci ventured to
Sicily, bringing forth a vibrant Grillo,
while his Champagne Grand Cuvée
Réserve emerges from a boutique
vineyard in France.
A COLLECTOR' S DREAM
As a wine enthusiast, it is impossible not
to be captivated by the journey Ricci?s
wines offer. The collection boasts an
impressive lineup: from the opulent
20 10 Gold M agnum and the 20 12 Fine
Paisley M agnum to the regal Royal
Eagle series, featuring blends of Merlot,
Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot.
Each vintage is released in limited
quantities, with formats ranging from the
elegant Bordolese to the majestic
M athusalem.
?Every year, we introduce a new
proposal to the market, recently thanks
to a consolidated collaboration with
the M oretti properties between Tuscany
and Sicily,? shares Filippo Ricci. ?We
have also presented a Gin and Vodka,
both organic and linked to our territory,
always with a stable view of growth.?
In 20 21, Ricci unveiled Luxor, a
single-varietal Merlot, embodying the
pinnacle of his vision. Like the man
himself, this wine is bold, sophisticated,
and unforgettable.

085

M ORE THAN WIN E
To savour a bottle of Stefano Ricci
wine is to embrace a lifestyle
rooted in artistry and tradition.
The wines are not just beverages;
they are experiences that pair
seamlessly with life?s most indulgent
moments. Whether enjoyed from a
Tuscan Leaf crystal decanter or
poured into a hand-ground glass,
each sip reflects the perfect
marriage of form and flavour.
For those who seek the
extraordinary, Stefano Ricci's wines
are an invitation to explore a world
where craftsmanship, culture, and
connoisseurship converge.
They are a reminder that, like great
wines, the finest things in life are
worth waiting for? and savouring.

In the world of fine spirits,
where every sip tells a story, the
Stefano Ricci 1996 Single M alt
Scotch Whisky emerges as a jewel
for true connoisseurs. This
masterpiece embodies the
meticulous pursuit of perfection? a
hallmark of both the Stefano Ricci
brand and the Isle of Arran?s storied
whisky-making tradition.
As Stefano Ricci explains, "Single
malt whisky has always been a
distinctive element and thanks to
the collaboration with Arran,
through La M aison du Whisky, we
have decided to offer a clientele
of experts a legitimate and rare
product."
"The Man who loves to drink quality
drinks thus has a further point of
reference in the Stefano Ricci
offering."
This commitment to quality is
evident in every aspect of the 1996
release.
For over two decades, this single
malt has quietly matured, its journey
beginning on the Isle of Arran, a
small corner of Scotland renowned
for its purity and dedication to
heritage. Every detail of its
creation has been carefully
considered, beginning with the
water sourced from a lake three
kilometres from the distillery.

091

On its journey, the water is naturally
filtered through granite rocks and
enriched with oxygen as it flows
over seven cascading waterfalls.
Combined with premium barley, this
pristine water becomes the
foundation of a whisky unlike any
other.
The Stefano Ricci 1996 Single Malt
Scotch Whisky is aged in Spanish
oak puncheon barrels? distinct
50 0 - litre casks chosen for their
ability to nurture a more refined,
delicate spirit.
This choice of barrel exemplifies a
commitment to tradition while
enhancing the whisky?s character
with nuanced layers of flavour.
The result is a whisky imbued with
the very essence of its origins: a
vibrant backbone cloaked in silky
spices, rich complexity, and noble
patterns reminiscent of damask
fabric.
"Whisky," as Ricci notes, "lives in a
world of its own, the result of a long
tradition and fascinating
workmanship. In modern history, the
affirmation of w hisky bars in the
twentieth century has developed
the contexts of exclusive clubs and
noble houses where this drink was
previously kept. In the best cards of
the world, its presence is
synonymous with refinement and
competence."
The Stefano Ricci 1996 Single Malt
epitomizes this tradition, offering
an extraordinary product that
appeals to both connoisseurs and
collectors alike.
The collaboration between
Stefano Ricci and La Maison du
Whisky elevates this release to a
new level of sophistication.
Known for curating the finest in
luxury spirits, La Maison du Whisky
brings its expertise to showcase the
1996 Single Malt in a manner that
embodies the ethos of Stefano
Ricci. From the elegant bottle
design to the whisky?s extraordinary
heritage, this partnership
celebrates the confluence of
craftsmanship and artistry.
Stefano Ricci, a brand synonymous
with ultra-luxury, has distilled its
own unique style into this whisky.
Just as their garment designs
reflect uncompromising attention to
detail, this single malt exemplifies
the pursuit of absolute quality. It
invites the discerning whisky lover
to experience not just a drink but a
moment of reflection, connection,
and refined indulgence.
As Ricci proudly asserts, "We
always move within LIM ITED
edition, never exceeding a
thousand copies worldwide for
both Wines and Fine Spirits.
It is not our core business, but a
complement that makes the
difference."

093
This limited release adds to the allure
of the 1996 Single Malt, making it even
more desirable for those who
understand the true value of rarity and
exclusivity.
The story of Stefano Ricci?s 1996 Single
Malt Scotch Whisky is more than a tale
of exceptional craftsmanship? it is a
tribute to the rich culture of whisky
itself. From its Gaelic origins asuisge
beathato the modern cocktail
renaissance, whisky remains a drink
steeped in history, tradition, and
artistry.
The brand?s partnership with
international bartenders ensures that
this legacy continues, inspiring
creations that span continents and
cultures.
For whisky lovers, the Stefano Ricci
1996 Single Malt Scotch Whisky is not
just a drink? it is an invitation to
discover a miniature corner of
Scotland, one sip at a time. It is a
celebration of the finer things in life,
where every detail tells a story.

In 1997, the creation of Oculus was A VIN TAGE FOR THE AGES
not merely the introduction of a new
wine; it was a declaration of
possibility.
M ission Hill Family Estate envisioned
what the Okanagan Valley could
become: a world-class wine region
capable of standing
shoulder-to-shoulder with the finest.
This vision took root in the vineyards
on the sun-drenched benches
overlooking Oliver and Osoyoos
Lake, where sagebrush and arid soils
provided the raw potential to
cultivate greatness. Over decades of
unwavering commitment to quality
and innovation, that dream has
been realized. The release of the
20 20 Oculus marks a historic
milestone in Canadian winemaking,
earning an unprecedented perfect
10 0 - point score? the first Canadian
red wine to achieve such acclaim.
The 20 20 Oculus is a masterful
expression of the Okanagan terroir.
Crafted from meticulously selected
estate-grown grapes, this
Bordeaux-style blend is a harmonious
symphony of M erlot (49%), Cabernet
Sauvignon (24%), Cabernet Franc
(22%), and Petit Verdot (5%). These
varietals are farmed in low-yielding
blocks within the winery?s Osoyoos
and Oliver Black Sage vineyard
estates. Gravity-filling techniques
transfer the hand-sorted grapes into
specially constructed French oak
and concrete fermenters, preserving
the integrity of each cluster. The wine
is then aged for 19 months in small
French oak barrels, followed by an
additional 24 months in bottle,
allowing its complex character to
evolve and deepen.

099

On the palate, the 20 20 Oculus
dazzles with its impeccable balance
and sophistication. Aromas of cassis,
dark cherry, and spice entice the
senses, while subtle notes of chocolate
add a luxurious depth. The silky
tannins and vibrant acidity create a
refined structure, showcasing the finest
attributes of each varietal. This
vintage is a testament to Mission Hill?s
dedication to excellence, offering
both immediate enjoyment and
remarkable aging potential.
RECOGN ITION & LEGACY
The perfect score awarded by
esteemed wine writer and sommelier
John Schreiner underscores the
extraordinary achievement of the
20 20 Oculus. Schreiner praised its
persistent finish and flawless execution,
calling it a ?tour de force? that
elevates Canadian wine to new
heights. This accolade is not only a
triumph for Mission Hill Family Estate
but also a pivotal moment for the
Okanagan Valley, affirming its place
on the global wine stage.
Mission Hill Family Estate has been
named ?Canadian Winery of the Year?
for an unprecedented five times, a
testament to the estate?s consistency
and innovation.
With each accolade, Mission Hill
reaffirms its role as a beacon of
excellence, illuminating the path
forward for Canadian winemaking.

101
THE FOUN DER' S VISION
When Proprietor Anthony von M andl
risked everything to purchase a near
bankrupt winery and renamed it Mission
Hill in 1981, the Okanagan was known
primarily for its stone fruit orchards. Von
Mandl, however, saw a greater potential.
In a speech to the Kelow na Chamber of
Commerce, he shared his ambitious
dream of transforming the valley into a
w orld- class w ine destination.
?When I look out over the valley,? he said,
?I see w orld- class vinifera vineyards
winding their way down the valley,
numerous estate wineries, charming inns,
and intimate cafes captivating visitors in a
magical setting. The dream is the N apa
Valley of Canada, but much more.?
This vision has guided every aspect of
Mission Hill?s evolution. From the organic
and regenerative farming practices in
the vineyards to the architectural
grandeur of the estate, every detail
reflects an unwavering pursuit of
excellence.
Today, Mission Hill?s achievements
resonate far beyond its vineyards,
inspiring a new era of winemaking and
luxury hospitality experiences in the
Okanagan Valley.

103

A SAN CTUARY FOR WIN E LOVERS
Mission Hill Family Estate is not just a
winery; it is an immersive experience
designed to celebrate the timelessness of
wine. Its monastic-inspired architecture
offers a serene escape from the everyday.
Guests enter through a hand- chiseled
stone archw ay, carved from a single
five-ton block of Indiana limestone,
bearing the von Mandl family crest. This
meticulous craftsmanship sets the tone for a
journey of discovery.
The estate?s 12- storey bell tow er is a
striking landmark, housing four bronze bells
cast by the Paccard Bell Foundry in
France. These bells chime every half-hour,
their resonant tones enhancing the tranquil
ambiance.
The loggia, an outdoor room blending
seamlessly with the landscape, provides
breathtaking views of the valley and
Okanagan Lake below.
Visitors can also explore the barrel cellar
carved into volcanic rock, where the
climate-controlled environment ensures
optimal aging conditions for Mission Hill?s
finest wines.
An oculus in the cellar? a circular opening
that lets in natural light? serves as both a
practical feature and an inspiration for the
winery?s flagship wine, an expression that
visually reflects the estate?s past, while
looking ahead to the future.
THE FUTURE OF CAN ADIAN WIN E
The 20 20 Oculus is priced at $225 and is
available for purchase online, with
complimentary shipping across British
Columbia and Alberta.
This landmark vintage represents more than
a bottle of wine; it is a symbol of what is
possible when vision, passion, and
craftsmanship converge.
Mission Hill?s journey is far from over. The
estate continues to innovate and push
boundaries, drawing inspiration from the
Okanagan?s unique landscape. As the
winery celebrates its achievements, it
remains committed to the future with a
focus on producing wines of exceptional
quality and taste that capture the essence
of this remarkable region.
For wine lovers, the 20 20 Oculus is more
than a drink? it is an invitation to savour
history in the making. As you raise a glass of
this extraordinary wine, you are not just
tasting the fruits of Mission Hill Family
Estate; you are toasting to the legacy of
Canadian winemaking and the boundless
possibilities that lie ahead.

HUBLOT | 'LUX URY ZONE' | Vancouver, BC
HThe artistry of horology has always been
about precision, craftsmanship, and
storytelling. As a horologist, I am often
drawn to timepieces that go beyond
function, merging innovation with narratives
that resonate deeply. Hublot?s latest
creation, the Big Bang Unico Carbon
Canada, is an intriguing example of this
philosophy. It is a timepiece that not only
marks the hours but also honours a nation?s
identity and spirit.
A Bold M ove in a N iche M arket
Canada, ranked 18th in the world for Sw iss
watch exports according to the Federation
of the Sw iss Watch Industry?s 20 23 report,
is not typically considered a major player
in the global luxury watch market.
Positioned just below countries like
Australia, Taiw an, and The N etherlands,
it is a vast land with a relatively small
population. Yet, Hublot?s decision to craft a
watch exclusively for this market is a bold
statement.

117
It acknowledges the growing
sophistication and passion of Canadian
watch collectors. This move underscores
Hublot?s willingness to venture into less
conventional markets, setting a precedent
for other luxury brands to follow.
The Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada:
Design and Symbolism
At first glance, the Big Bang Unico
Carbon Canada?s design is striking. The
black carbon case, interwoven with red
and w hite flecks, immediately captures
attention.
These colours are a deliberate nod to
Canada?s national flag, with its iconic
red maple leaf set against a white
backdrop. Hublot?s interpretation goes
deeper, however. The white represents
Canada?s snowy landscapes, while the red
pays homage to the vibrant hues of the
nation?s autumn foliage.
The 42mm case, a hallmark of Hublot?s
Big Bang collection, is both robust and
elegant. The Canadian maple leaf takes
centre stage on the case back,
symbolizing unity, peace, and the
breathtaking natural beauty that defines
the nation. With its eleven points, the
maple leaf is more than an emblem; it is a
testament to Canada?s history and
aspirations.
Every detail of this watch tells a story,
making it more than just an accessory? it
is a collector?s piece imbued with
meaning.
A M asterpiece of Sw iss Engineering
At the heart of the Big Bang Unico
Carbon Canada lies Hublot?s in-house
Unico movement. This calibre is a marvel
of Swiss engineering, renowned for its
mechanical complexity and unparalleled
precision. Featuring a column wheel and
dual-clutch mechanism visible through the
dial, the Unico movement exemplifies
Hublot?s dedication to technical mastery.
Its 72- hour pow er reserve and the use of
advanced materials like silicon for the
escapement ensure reliability and
longevity? a perfect marriage of tradition
and innovation.
The technical prowess of the Unico
movement is matched by its aesthetic
appeal. The visible mechanics on the dial
side are a reminder of the meticulous
craftsmanship that defines Hublot?s
approach. It is a timepiece that appeals
to both the engineer and the artist within
every horologist.
For Discerning Collectors
This limited edition? restricted to just
50 pieces? is exclusively available at
Hublot?s boutiques in Toronto and
Vancouver. The Vancouver boutique is
located in the heart of the ?Luxury Zone,?
downtown?s premier destination for
high-end shopping.
Surrounded by world-renowned luxury
brands, this boutique is a testament to the
city?s growing appreciation for fine
craftsmanship and elite design.

119
The location perfectly complements
Hublot?s reputation for innovation and
exclusivity.
The watch comes with two strap options
including Hublot?s signature black rubber
strap, accented with red and white
stitching. This duality allows wearers to
adapt the timepiece to different occasions,
blending versatility with elegance.
The packaging is another noteworthy
aspect. The Hublot Greenbox Case,
adorned with the maple leaf, reflects the
brand?s commitment to sustainability.
Crafted entirely from oak, with 98% of its
removable interior made from recycled
and eco- friendly materials, the case is
more than just a container. It is a reusable
and environmentally conscious creation
that aligns with modern values. By using
traceable wood and promoting short
supply chains, Hublot demonstrates that
luxury can coexist w ith responsibility.
A Horologist?s Appreciation
For those of us in the field of horology, the
Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada is a
compelling example of how watches can
transcend their practical purpose. It
embodies the ?Art of Fusion? that Hublot
is renowned for? a seamless blend of
Sw iss precision, innovative materials, and
cultural storytelling. By crafting a
timepiece that honours Canada?s identity,
Hublot has created more than just a watch;
it has forged a connection with a nation
and its people.
From the intricate details of the Unico
movement to the symbolism of the maple
leaf, every element of this watch reflects a
deep respect for craftsmanship and
narrative. It is a reminder that in the world
of horology, true innovation lies not only in
technical advancements but also in the
ability to tell stories that resonate with
collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Lovers of horology will find the Big Bang
Unico Carbon Canada to be a fascinating
case study.
It challenges conventional notions of what
a timepiece can represent and pushes the
boundaries of design and innovation. For
Canadian collectors, it offers a rare
opportunity to own a piece of horological
history? a watch that is as much a tribute
to their heritage as it is a testament to
Hublot?s visionary approach.
For the rest of us, it serves as a beacon of
what is possible when craftsmanship meets
creativity and cultural appreciation.

& Co. enchanted the world
of haute joaillerie with the unveiling
of Blue Book 20 24: Tiffany Céleste,
a celestial celebration of
Jean Schlumberger?s visionary
imagination and fascination with the
cosmos. This exquisite collection
brought to life the mysteries of the
universe, blending craftsmanship with
artistry.
Designed by N athalie Verdeille,
Tiffany?s Chief Artistic Officer of
Jew elry and High Jew elry, this
collection reinterpreted Schlumberger?s
iconic motifs of the sun, moon, stars,
and galaxies, creating dreamlike
pieces that honour his legacy while
embracing modern sophistication.
?The Tiffany Blue Book collection told
the extraordinary story of our
legendary craftsmanship with the
world?s most exceptional diamonds and
gemstones,? shared Anthony Ledru,
President and Chief Executive Officer,
Tiffany & Co.
A STELLAR COLLECTION
Six dazzling chapters: Wings, Arrow,
Constellation, Iconic Star, Ray of Light,
and Apollo.
The Wings chapter epitomized flight
and fantasy, with radiant designs
featuring Schlumberger?s iconic wing
silhouettes rendered in diamonds and
sapphires.
The Ray of Light chapter paid homage
to archival Tiffany brooches that
evoked golden sunrays, incorporating
vibrant red spinels to mimic beams of
light. Among its treasures was a
convertible necklace that transformed
into a tiara? a rarity not seen in recent
Blue Book collections.
The Iconic Star chapter revisited
archival Schlumberger sketches,
exploring the star as a timeless emblem
of the universe.
The Constellation chapter expanded
on celestial themes, presenting motifs
inspired by the intricate patterns of star
clusters, evoking the grandeur of the
cosmos.
The Apollo chapter reimagined
Schlumberger?s legendary Apollo
brooch, elevating it with Tiffany?s
signature yellow and white diamonds.
The Arrow chapter drew inspiration
from the 1941 Trophée de Vaillance
brooch, featuring custom-cut
Colombian emeralds shaped to evoke
arrow tips.

?Our journey into Jean Schlumberger?s
artistry began with Blue Book 20 23:
Out of the Blue, where we explored his
fantastical vision of the aquatic world,?
noted Verdeille. ?For Blue Book 20 24:

PRINCESS LOUISA LODGE | Faith Wilson | BC

P LL
In the heart of British Columbia?s

the property is offered at $33,0 0 0 ,0 0 0
CAD and represents a rare opportunity
to own a slice of pristine Canadian
wilderness.

133

A WILDERN ESS M ASTERPIECE
From its origins as raw, untouched land,
Princess Louisa Lodge has been
meticulously transformed into a haven
of tranquillity and elegance.
Spanning approximately
20 ,0 0 0 - square- feet of living space
across seven primary structures, this
estate seamlessly balances the rugged
beauty of its surroundings with luxurious
modern amenities.
Each element of the property has been
thoughtfully designed to create a
sanctuary that can be enjoyed
privately, and yet is large enough to
potentially be a boutique commercial
lodge.
With 24 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms,
the estate provides ample space for
family, friends, and guests.
A network of well-maintained roads
connects the structures, ensuring ease
of access throughout the property.
Sustainability is woven into the fabric of
the estate, with hydro- electric pow er

year-round mountain waterfalls.

135
THE M AIN LODGE
A Testament to Rugged Luxury
The crown jewel of the estate, the
M ain Lodge, is a grand structure crafted
from majestic red cedar logs. Nestled
against the sheer face of a tow ering
rock cliff, it embodies rugged
sophistication. Inside, eight bedrooms
and ten bathrooms ensure that comfort
is paramount.
Expansive living spaces, framed by
panoramic w indow s, invite the natural
beauty of the surrounding wilderness
indoors. Built for those who want to get
away without sacrificing an ounce of
style or modern amenities, the lodge
features three redundant satellite
systems, ensuring seamless connectivity.
Every inch of the Main Lodge whispers of
a life that embraces the wild while
revelling in the refined.
The large deck, with its jaw-dropping
views of mountains and ocean, is where
you will find your balance. And the
primary bedroom? Let us just say waking
up to that view makes it hard to leave,
even if the world is calling.
THE GUEST HOUSE
A Five- Star Refuge
Located near the Lodge, but with just
enough breathing room, sits the
Guest House ? a sanctuary of its own.
Built with the same thoughtful attention to
detail, it rivals any five- star hideaw ay.
Two common areas, each anchored by a
crackling w ood- burning fireplace,
encourage relaxation and connection.
The patio stretches the length of the
lower floor, offering jaw-dropping ocean
and mountain views ? perfect for
catching the sunset or losing yourself in
the rhythm of the waves below.
With eight bedrooms and eight
bathrooms, the Guest House provides an
exceptional experience for visitors.
THE WRITER' S CABIN
An Intimate Escape
Tucked right against the water?s edge,
the Writer?s Cabin is a study in quiet
confidence. It is not here to outshine its
grander neighbours; instead, it offers
something different ? something more
personal.
Constructed in the same manner as the
Main Lodge, it is unassuming but knows
exactly what it is doing. Easy water
access for those moments when you need
to clear your head, a hot tub to melt
away the day, a wood-burning fireplace
that feels like a w arm hug, and a full
kitchen to fuel your late-night writing
marathons.
This is where nature and luxury shake
hands. It is the kind of place where words
come easier, where the noise of the
world fades, and the only thing left is you,
your thoughts, and the endless
possibilities of the blank page.

Day Camp cabin offers unparalleled

the estate. With a vaulted ceiling and
cobblestone flooring, this grand
events space can host celebrations,

greenhouse, thanks to strategically
placed water spouts. It is a versatile
venue that caters to a wide range of
creative pursuits.

featuring rows of raspberry and
blueberry bushes, seasonal
vegetables, and over 20 fruit trees. A

M CLA REN VA NCOUVER | Dealer 50103 | BC
MFrom the moment you slip behind the wheel of
the M cLaren 750 S, you know you are in for
an extraordinary experience. As a car
enthusiast, this is the kind of machine that stirs
the soul and sets the pulse racing.
The 750 S, available in coupe and
convertible Spider forms, is not merely a
car? it is a testament to McLaren?s
unwavering commitment to pushing the
boundaries of automotive engineering.
It is lighter, faster, and more connected to the
driver than ever before, representing a new
benchmark for supercar performance.

149

Lightweight Engineering: Redefining Agility
The 750 S boasts an astounding dry weight of
1,277 kilograms in its lightest coupe form,
setting it apart as the lightest and most
powerful series-production McLaren. Even the
Spider variant , with its Retractable Hard Top
(RHT), achieves an impressive 1,326 kilograms.
This dedication to weight savings is evident in
every detail. From the carbon fibre
monocoque to the ultra- lightweight forged
w heels and thinner w indscreen glass, every
gram is scrutinized to ensure peak
performance. The result? A segment-leading
power-to-weight ratio of 587 PS- per- tonne in
the coupe and 566 PS- per- tonne in the Spider.
For those who revel in precision, McLaren?s new
10 -spoke ultra-lightweight forged wheels save
13.8 kilograms compared to their predecessors.
Even the racing seats, made of carbon fibre
shells, shave off an additional 17.5 kilograms.
Each innovation contributes to the 750 S?s
remarkable agility, allowing it to dance
through corners and accelerate with
unparalleled ferocity.
Ferocious Pow er at Your Command
Beneath the sculpted exterior lies a heart that
beats with pure, unbridled power. The 4.0 - litre
twin- turbocharged V8 engine produces a
staggering 750 PS and 80 0 Nm of torque. With
optimised transmission gearing and revised
kickdown control strategies, the 750 S rockets
from 0 to 10 0 km/ h in just 2.8 seconds and
reaches 20 0 km/ h in a mere 7.2 seconds.
These numbers are not just figures on a spec
sheet; they are a visceral reality when your foot
meets the accelerator.
The distinctive central-exit exhaust, inspired by
the legendary M cLaren P1? , provides an
acoustic experience that matches the car?s
performance. With a sharp crescendo at high
engine speeds, the exhaust note perfectly
complements the sheer exhilaration of driving
the 750 S. It is not merely a sound; it is a
symphony of engineering excellence.
Unmatched Dynamic Excellence
McLaren?s Proactive Chassis Control (PCC)
has been reimagined for the 750 S, elevating
suspension performance to new heights.
Dubbed PCC III, this advanced
linked-hydraulic suspension system balances
astonishingly precise body control with a level
of ride comfort that defies expectations. Softer
front springs and stiffer rear springs work in
harmony with reconfigured valve stacks and
accumulator tuning, delivering unparalleled
feedback and cornering balance.
The 750 S?s electro-hydraulic steering, widely
regarded as the gold standard for precision
and clarity, has been enhanced with a faster
steering ratio and a new pow er- assistance
pump. Combined with a 6mm wider front track
and revised suspension geometry, the result is a
supercar that feels alive in your hands. Every
input is met with immediate, confident
responses, making the 750 S an extension of the
driver?s will.
A Cabin Tailored to the Driver
Step inside, and you are greeted by a cockpit
that places the driver at the centre of
everything. The new driver- centric display,
mounted on the steering column, moves with the
wheel, ensuring critical information is always
within view.

151
The controls for Powertrain and Handling
modes are conveniently located on either
side of the display, allowing effortless
transitions between Comfort, Sport, and
Track settings without ever taking your
hands off the wheel.
For those who seek a bespoke driving
experience, the M cLaren Control
Launcher (MCL) debuts on the 750 S. This
innovative feature allows drivers to save
their preferred combination of aero,
handling, powertrain, and transmission
settings, which can be instantly recalled
with the press of a button featuring the
iconic M cLaren Speedy Kiw i emblem.
Modern conveniences are not overlooked.
The 750 S offers Apple CarPlay®
integration, a redesigned Central
Information Screen with richer graphics,
and an upgraded Rear View and
Surround View camera system. For
audiophiles, the Bow ers & Wilkins sound
system delivers unparalleled audio
quality, with Continuum® cone speakers
and a more powerful amplifier.
The Art of Aerodynamics
Every curve and surface of the 750 S has
been meticulously crafted to enhance
aerodynamic efficiency. The extended
front splitter, redesigned rear deck, and
raised carbon fibre active rear wing work
in harmony to maximize downforce and
minimize drag. The wing deploys in less
than half a second, adapting to driving
conditions to provide optimal stability
and braking performance.
The Spider variant, with its glazed flying
buttresses and electrochromic RHT,
seamlessly blends open-air exhilaration
with aerodynamic sophistication.
The roof can be opened or closed in just
11 seconds at speeds up to 50 km/ h,
allowing drivers to transition effortlessly
between coupe and convertible
experiences.
The Purest Connection
The McLaren 750 S is more than a
supercar; it is an instrument of pure
driving pleasure. The combination of
lightweight construction, ferocious power,
and cutting-edge technology creates a
vehicle that not only excels on paper but
also delivers an emotional connection
that is impossible to quantify.
The Benchmark Redefined
McLaren has set a new standard with the
750 S, a car that combines the precision
of a scalpel with the power of a
sledgehammer. It is a testament to the
brand?s dedication to
performance- based innovation and a
celebration of what makes driving truly
great. For the purist, the 750 S is not just a
car; it is the ultimate expression of
automotive artistry.
