Algonquin College Sommelier Program

Marc Lepine
Marc LepineChef Marc Lepine graduated from the Algonquin Sommelier Program in 2002. He remains active as a judge for the Wine and Food Matching course. Marc is owner and Chef of the soon-to-be opened (late June, 2008) Atelier Restaurant. It will be Ottawa's first 'tasting menu only' restaurant.

Marc was twice named 'Ottawa Chef of the Year' by the Canadian Culinary Federation (2006 and 2007).  Marc enrolled in the program because he believes that it's important for chefs to understand how wine selection affects the final taste of a dish, just as any other ingredient does.
