Our

PHILOSOPHY

There is a story inside every bottle we carry that begins in the soil and ends on the palate. A story of passion, dedication, and eventual tasting bliss. Every one of these bottles is tasted and assessed before being shared with you, our customer.

The result is a remarkable selection of handcrafted wines from around the world, at every price point; an unparalleled, rotating selection of cold craft beers; and a unique collection of spirits and liqueurs.

We complement this selection with friendly, knowledgeable staff and all day, every day tastings.

WE DO IT FOR THE LOVE OF LIBATION.

TEAM
ERIC HUSTON

Roughly 20 years ago a move from Ontario led me to the mountains for snowboarding, mountain biking and golf. The World of Wine has been my preferred career choice for some time now and my first sip of wine was all it took. I remember thinking, WOW, this is good stuff! I quickly began to travel wine country when I could and studied through the ISG Sommelier Diploma Program in Calgary. This passion for wine lead to studies with food and they both continue to be a huge part of my life. The restaurant scene led me to boutique sales in retail and I was hooked from the beginning. I love talking about wine, tasting wine, experimenting with pairings and hosting as well. But if you’re in the mood for beer and scotch…don’t hesitate to ask.

ALISON NAGEL

I often get asked what made me decide to open a wine shop. After working in oil & gas for 10 years I was ready to follow my true passion for wine, and retail seemed like a natural fit. I love chatting with our wonderful customers about wine and food and I can’t imagine a better setting than Canmore. My new career has taken me to the greatest wine growing regions in the world and I have had the privilege of meeting so many amazing people who have dedicated their lives to wine. When I opened the shop in 2010, I filled the shelves with remarkable wines, spirits, and beer, always with a focus on great value. This continues to be the mission of Cellar Door and we look forward to sharing our delicious new finds with you.
