THE SHOW
Summer 2018
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 New Wine Release trip into Vancouver and Victoria it feels like old home week.
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.
