Tianjun

Tianjun started with Bishop’s Cellar in 2023 and brought a wealth of knowledge via certifications in WSET Level 2 as well as a Diploma in Cool Climate Winemaking and Viticulture from NSCC in Kentville back in 2020. Although Tianjun may seem shy initially, keep reading below to find out some cool facts about one of our newest employees. Welcome to the team, Tianjun!

Favourite grape or wine region?

Sauvignon Blanc. It sounds beautiful and romantic in Chinese.

What is one thing that people would be shocked to know about you?

Em… I play drums. Likely because people think I am so quiet until they know I play the loudest instrument in the world…

Anything else you want to add?

  1. I play two instruments and I’m into Ballet right now.
  2. I got a B.ed and a M.ed.
  3. I gave them all up and took the winemaking course.

Tianjun's Picks

Thanksgiving Pairings


Roasted Duck

Don’t have enough people to finish a whole turkey this Thanksgiving, why not try another kind of bird? 

Duck tends to take on the flavor of the sauce or spice much like chicken does, but it shows off more of its inherent aroma when caramelized or braised. A roasted duck tends to bring out deeper flavors, which is why Barolo works thanks to moderate tannins and pleasing fruity and herbal notes. Although this red wine has stronger tannins, it has high enough acidity to balance out the fattiness in the dish. Barolo also reveals a subtle earthiness that works well with roasted duck.
