Sommelier Manager
François Raby
Sommellerie took place very early in my life. It all started 45 years ago at Clos Vougeot, in Burgundy. After obtaining my diploma in hotel management at the ITHQ in 1984, catering quickly became the nerve center of my career. From then until today, I have worked in the best institutions. In 2003 and 2004, I won the Professional Gérard Delage Cup, with participation in the competition for the best Sommelier in Quebec.
By working with the best in the business, I also learned to build my character in a discipline of rigor. Via Le Nôtre, Center Sheraton, Hôtel Vogue (Philippe Mollé), La Queue de Cheval, L’Eau à la Bouche (Anne Desjardins) La Forge and now Estérel Resort and Bistro à Champlain…. In short, I am passionate about sharing stories, discoveries and dreams. I can consider myself an expert with a broad vision, offering unforgettable service, with a solid knowledge of products and customers and adaptable to any style of business.
At Estérel Resort, we are the 4 musketeers of sommellerie, with more than 140 years of experience put together, which makes us a unique and experienced team. Each one controls his passage so that the whole becomes self-sufficient. We are constantly evolving and looking for the best for our customers.
