We always have fun choosing wines for you to welcome the weekend with! 
This weekend we are featuring wines where the wine industry first originated  - KELOWNA!

When we think of the wine industry, many of us think of only the Oliver/Osoyoos area - however, realistically, many great great wines come right from our Kelowna wineries.

Mission Hill Winery for example, has taken home the most esteemed prizes a winery could hope for, winning the BEST CHARDONNAY IN THE WORLD, along with not only THE BEST PINOT NOIR IN THE WORLD, but that Pinot also won BEST RED WINE IN THE WORLD, beating out Top French Bordeaux wines, Top Australian Shiraz, Top Napa Cabernet.

So this weekend we celebrate where our great wine industry originated, tasting with you new exciting pics from Kelowna!

As always, our complimentary tastings are from 3-6pm, Fridays and Saturdays.


Cheers,

Kim Murphy

Weekend Tastings

FRIDAY, MARCH 3RD
3-6 PM

Spierhead 2015 Pinot Gris $22.60 +taxes 
This pale straw coloured Pinot Gris has lots of body.  It is a rich, well balanced wine, with plenty of freshness to match its tropical flavours.


Kalala 2015 Harmony White $16.51 +taxes
ORGANIC
This Kalala signature aromatic blend has a tropical nose and palate, full of ripe passion fruit, grapefruit and guava with just a hint of minerality. It is just slightly off dry with vibrant acidity and a lingering finish. Great sipping wine or try with some light snacks. A blend of: Pinot Gris 45%, Gewürztraminer 30%, Riealing 15% and Auxerrois 10%. Each varietal in this fruit-forward blend was fermented separately with a specific yeast in stainless steel to ensure that the varietals’ unique characteristics were preserved. After the wines were finished, we went through extensive blending trials with the Kalala team to achieve the perfectly-balanced wine.


Kalala 2013 Aspire $26.08 +taxes 
ORGANIC~NEW VINTAGE
A rich, bold blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah with aromas and flavours of plum, blueberry and cherry.  Abundant tannins would suggest decanting before serving with heartier foods. Quite enjoyable now but also an excellent wine to age; 3-5 years is suggested.


Summerhill 2014 Baco Noir $34.50 +taxes 
ORGANIC~NEW VINTAGE
Deep red with balanced acidity and intense flavours. Very smooth and hearty with notes of chocolate, tobacco, blackberry, black currant, and integrated oak.

SATURDAY, MARCH 4TH
3-6 PM
St Hubertus 2014 Riesling $19.99 +taxes 
This is possibly the perfect white wine! This dry Riesling is extremely versatile: have it with friends over a bowl of green chicken curry or just sip it at your romantic lakeside picnic. Classically styled, this wine shows delicate floral aromas with hints of honey, apple and lime.

Mission Hill 2015 Reserve Chardonnay $23.47 +taxes 
BEST SELLER
Flavours of ripe pineapple, yellow peach, coconut, orange, jasmine, and hazelnut combine in perfect harmony with crisp acidity and roundness. Pair with herbed grilled salmon, scallops, tuna, roast chicken, veal, pork and rich buttery sauces. This Chardonnay is for the Chardonnay lover as well as the Chardonnay beginner. Well balanced and rich is good with food or on its own. 


Oak Bay 2014 Gamay Noir $25.50 +taxes 
NEW VINTAGE
A characteristic Beaujolais. Our Gamay shows intense black cherry, peppery, mineral aromas with very light, dry tannins. Perfect for your fondue party at the ski chalet! Also serve with Birch Syrup- Roasted Squash Ravioli with Brown Butter Hazelnut Sauce or wild BC Sablefish over Lentils with Vinaigrette. 


Mission Hill 2014 Reserve Merlot $34.42 +taxes

Our stellar Osoyoos vineyard estate delivers this fruit forward and full-bodied Merlot. Lush flavours of plum, blackberry, and black currant abound, supported by silky tannins with a lengthy finish.
