  • Share with us your emotions when asked to sit in the center of Vin65’s last supper photo?
    It was a mixture between pure fear and true joy.

  • Left-handed or right-handed?
    Left-handed.

  • If right, can you please put the - and + buttons in the correct order here:
    Sorry, left-handed. Everyone in the office is left-handed.

  • Seriously, though, what feature in Base3 do you feel will have the biggest impact for wineries?
    I think a combination of the new checkout experience and customer-specific pricing up front.

  • What’s the beer of choice in the Vin65 office right now?
    Red Stripe Lager.

  • Recommend three things to do in Vancouver if you only have one night.
    Snow cones, ice fishing, and skating around Stanley Park.
