hello

MARK HOPLEY (winemaker) – Hester Creek!   New Releases. Columbia Valley Collection & Epic 22

THE SHOW 

The Columbia Valley Collection.

“This is giving us the best opportunity to craft wines of distinction while ensuring our local BC farmers and their vineyards can recover from the cold weather challenges.”  Mark Hopley Winemaker Hester Creek.

Hester Creek is pleased to present a new collection of eight wines with outstanding quality grapes sourced from the Columbia Valley.

Two back-to-back freezing Winters left Hester Creek vines without fruit, and they found themselves looking to source grapes that would match their quality standards. This vintage will be available for one year, during which time their vineyards will have a chance to recover.

Columbia Valley Collection includes :

Pinot Gris/Sauvignon Blanc/Viognier/Chardonnay/  Cab Franc Rosé /Merlot/Meritage.

Mark would also ask you to keep an eye out for 2024 Riesling & 2024 Rose Noir. Both are sourced from the Ancient Lakes AVA of the Columbia Valley. The Reisling is Granny Smith and peach on the nose.  Crisp fruit and bright apple on the palate.

The Rosé is such fun. Strawberries, wild berries, vanilla cream. Stone cold yummy.

Hester Creek also presents Epic ’22.

This vintage is named to celebrate what was truly an exceptional growing season.

Epic 22 includes Old Vine Cab Franc, Syrah, Garland and The Judge. The Judge and Garland meet at the crossroads of truly and exceptional.
