In vino veritas
Jean-Paul Pilon, founder of OWC, was born in the Loire Valley, France, a region not only known for its castles but also for its renown wines. It is naturally that Jean-Paul's interest for wines and wine-making grew stronger. After having worked for 15 years in industry in France, he decided to share his knowledge with the North American producers.
He then moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2004, where he created OWC. The company was later moved to Bedford, Quebec, after Jean-Paul fell in love with the province.
OWC now counts customers all over Canada, as well as on the American East Coast.
