THE SHOW

SPRING!

Renewal. Bud Break. Real warmth in the day. Sunrise at 6am.

AND new releases from BC’s wineries. Perhaps, the very best time of the year.

We spent almost 5 glorious years on the Naramata Bench.

It was everything we had hoped it would be. A mix of farms, food, wineries and really fine people.

Now, when they make their annual Spring Wine Release trip into Vancouver and Victoria it feels like old home week.

Tailgate Party

I have the wonderful job of sitting down and getting re-acquainted with familiar faces and new wines.

For you wine fans joining us, it’s a chance to perhaps, find your wine of the year or at the very least your Spring/Summer.
