We are saddened to learn this morning that Ted Turner, the founding member and driving force behind the Toronto Vintners Club for many years, died at his winter home in Mexico after a brief illness. Our thoughts and sympathies go to his wife Trish, who attended many tastings with Ted, and to his family. Ted was extremely affable and really well liked by all who met him. He will be greatly missed. Ted, we shall remember and raise a glass to you on September 21st when the Club meets to drink 2000 Bordeaux at its 35th Birthday.
