Event Details:
Keira LeFranc, Winemaker & Director of Operations:
Keira grew up in the Okanagan, and actually got her start in the wine industry in the Stag’s Hollow tasting room as her summer job in 2012. Showing a keen interest in the cellar side of things, after completing a science degree, she jumped at the opportunity to join our vintage team on the crush pad in 2013, which further solidified her passion for the industry. Following that first harvest, Keira spent 2 years training and working as a Sommelier in Australia, completing her WSET 3 and CMS Certified Sommelier. Missing getting her hands dirty in the cellar, she returned to the Okanagan to join our vintage crew again in 2015, before returning to the Southern Hemisphere to complete a Postgraduate Diploma of Wine Science in New Zealand, and an overseas harvest. She made her final move back to the Okanagan shortly thereafter and joined the Stag’s Hollow team permanently. In July 2018, she assumed the role of Winemaker, marking a pivotal moment in her career, and under her guidance, Stag’s Hollow has flourished, producing a portfolio of acclaimed wines that showcase the unique terroir of the region.
