Do you know what a Library Tasting is?
In the world of wine, the term "Library Wine" refers to a wine that is an aged vintage...or is part of a collection...or is a sold out vintage...I believe that we are bringing something to Chilliwack that not even I get when I go to the Okanagan.When I visit the Okanagan Valley I do truly get spoiled with special tastings, barrel tastings, reserve tastings...but one thing I don't get is Library Tastings. Wineries just don't bring these wines out...to bring out old vintages and compare the different vintages of their wines is a hugely rare occurrence.  We are bringing Library Tastings to our City. This is hugely rare. Tonight, we are hosting a Library Tasting with owner of The View Winery, Jennifer Molgat. Jennifer brings a wealth of knowledge seeing that her family has owned the land that the winery sits on for 5 generations. She will amaze you in our Library tonight by pouring you her 2012, 2013 and 2014 vintages of Riesling. Starting you off with her Distraction Rose Frizzante, this will be a fantastic Library Series to attend. We will offer this Library Tasting tonight with Farm to Table locally sourced charcuterie prepared by Bonnie Friesen of FASPA & Co for $29. 


Cheers,


Kim Murphy

Weekend Tastings

FRIDAY JUNE 3RD
The View 2014 Distraction Frizzante $19.12+ taxes

A delightfully distracting, dry, sparkling made from Pinotage, Gewurztraminer and Ehrenfelser grown on our fifth generation estate overlooking Kelowna and the Okanagan Lake. Dry yet fruity with beautiful notes of Raspberry, Strawberry, and cranberry.  (Blend: Gewurztraminer 33.00 %, Riesling 21.00 %, Ehrenfelser 26.00 %, Optima 10.00 %, Pinotage 10.00 %) 


The View 2015 Silver Lining Rose $13.51+ taxes

We are very excited to introduce this delicious new rose to the store from The View Winery. VQA exclusive and a fantastic value this will surely be the new patio favourite. A luscious Baco Noir rose rounded out with a blend of aromatic whites. The Baco Noir was the target of the vine pull program in the 1980’s so there are very few of the vines left in the province. This unique rose really shows off the Baco Noir with a dark crimson colour and juicy raspberry and plum flavours with a hint of lingering fruit. Not too sweet it is easily paired with a variety of foods such as fresh oven baked pizza, strawberry balsamic salad with goat cheese and pecans, or with a fruit salad. It is a lovely patio sipper on its own and a must try for the rose aficionado.

The Hatch 2015 Gobsmacked Gruner Veltliner

$29.56+ TAXES

The great grape of Austria is making in-roads into The Okanagan. We believe we’re only the 3rd winery in BC to produce this variety. Ours is grown in the sunny heat that is Osoyoos, making our Gruner more Federspiel than Smaragd. What do we mean by that? Lest we forget we’re wine geeks at heart, this Gruner is light, clean and crisp. No oak, delicate acid and a couple hints hallmark to this variety; white pepper. Drink now with seafood or seafood pasta dishes.
