BC’s Gold Hill Winery Sauvignon Blanc 2022 and Charisma Cabernet Merlot 2021 Today I have two wines for you from south Okanagan's Gold Hill Winery; their Gold Hill Winery Sauvignon Blanc 2022 and Charisma Cabernet Merlot 2021. Charisma is their second label. Charisma wines curates charming approachable everyday drinking wines. There were scattered forest fires in the BC interior in 2021, but the winemakers at that time did not notice any smoke taint during the winemaking process.

Quick Review: Gold Hill Oxbow Reach Cabernet Franc and Merlot 2019 We are well into the colder, winter weather now here in BC. So it is time to venture into deeper, red wines. I have two red wines from Oliver's Gold Hill Winery. I have their Gold Hill Oxbow Reach Merlot 2019 and Oxbow Reach Cabernet Franc 2019. Both are interestingly from the 2019 vintage, with now 6 years of aging.

Your Dinner Companions: Domaine Artema Winery Village Sparkling Rose and La Petite Mort I saved my last two wines from Domaine Artema Winery to be their Village Sparkling Rosé 2024 and their La Petite Mort (port style), NV, dessert wine. These two wines can cover the start and end of a delicious dinner. I did not decant either wine. In the first case, you don't want the delicious bubbles in your sparkling wine to dissipate and the latter, dessert wines, with their high sugar content, tend to stay unchanged in aromas and flavours over a long time.

Quick Review: Domaine Artema Winery Gamay and Rose Village 2024 Today, I'm easing us into the colder weather with a 2024 Rosé and a Gamay wine made by Oliver's Domaine Artema Winery. Gamay is a red wine grape with less tannins and more acidity, making it easier to sip on its own as well as being food friendly. The Rosé wine uses Pinot Noir primarily with a substantial amount of Gamay.

Iconic Wineries of British Columbia Holiday Preview I was privileged to be invited to attend the "Iconic Wineries of British Columbia" Holiday Preview this week, held at the Holt Renfrew, in downtown Vancouver. We sampled selections from Mission Hill Family Estate, Martin’s Lane, CheckMate Artisanal Winery, CedarCreek Estate Winery, Liquidity Wines, and Road 13 Vineyards. There were red, white, rose, and sparkling wines, along with canapes, made by the chefs from their winery's restaurant, to pair with some of the wines.

Domaine Artema Winery Village Chardonnay and Village Pinot Gris 2024 Have you heard of one of our newest BC wineries, Domaine Artema Winery? The winery is located on Black Sage Road in Oliver, just down the road from Burrowing Owl. They opened their doors to the public earlier this year. This winery notes that it specializes in Chardonnay and Gamay Noir wines. Gamay Noir is the grape grown primarily in Beaujolais, France, just south of Burgundy.

A Pacific Northwest Sauvignon Blanc and a BC Rose to Enjoy Today Well, the really bad, rainy weather is not yet here, so I decided to taste a white and a rosé wine. Red wines will come soon enough. Today I have the Gold Hill Winery Cabernet Franc Rosé 2022 and the Township 7 Vineyards & Winery Interlude Sauvignon Blanc 2024, with the latter being made in BC, but using WA state grapes due to our terrible winter in 2024 which killed many grape vines in BC.

There are two wines that I did not have a chance to try on my visit. Luckily, co-owner, Heleen Pannekoek…

My Last South Okanagan Stop to Taste Wines with La Stella Winery My last winery visit while I was staying in the Osoyoos area was the La Stella Winery. I met with tasting room manager, Wade Martin, as he poured me their recent wine releases and discussed wines in general. Their winery like other Okanagan wineries was affected by the 2024 winter blast. Out of 70 acres of planted vines, they were forced to rip out just shy of 30 acres.
