"...French Oak for 6 weeks then blended to spend 4 months sur lies..."

"Join us beginning Tuesday as we sample the new 2008 Pinot Blanc ($16.91) from Dunham & Froese.  Winemaker Kirby Froese has spent over 15 years in the wine industry travelling the world from Chile to  Australia to California fine-tuning his wine making. He has been a judge for the British Columbia VQA since 1999 and has won awards for his wines during his seven years working as a wine maker here in the South Okanagan. The 2008 Pinot Blanc was aged in French Oak for 6 weeks then blended to spend 4 months sur lies. It's fresh and fruity with green apple and toasty vanilla character. A full bodied style of Pinot Blanc with a long finish. 

See You Here!"

Wine Knowledge:

Chardonnay:

The greatest non-aromatic dry white wine grape in the world, despite the proliferation of cheap, identikit Chardonnay wines that are churned out around the world.  This classic variety is responsible for producing the greated white Burgundies and is one of the three major grape types used in the production of Champagne.

-The Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia

N.B. - Some of the best Sparkling wines that BC has to offer are made of 100% Chardonnay as well.  Want to know which?  Come in and ask our experts~

"...to benefit the Breast Cancer Society of Canada..."


"Join us this Saturday between 2 and 5 pm as we welcome John Hill of Tangled Vines Winery! This 13 acre property is located in Okanagan Falls, just across the road from Wild Goose and Stag's Hollow Wineries. The vineyard is made up of 13 year old Pinot Blanc and 4 year old Gewurztraminer with newly planted Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris.

We will begin with their 2008 Sauvignon Blanc ($17.01). Look for flavours of Gooseberry, Lemon and Lime in this crisp wine that just screams for shellfish!

The 2008 Pinot Blanc ($15.78) was fermented in stainless steel resulting in a smooth, fruit-forward wine. The aromas and flavours suggest Bartlett pear and apples.

The 2008 Three Blancs ($16.91) is a blend of Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris & Gewurztraminer, with just a whiff of Muscat, giving this off-dry wine captivating flavours of ripe melon and vanilla.

Finally the 2008 Tickled Pink ($16.78) shows aromas and flavours of wild strawberry, black cherry and spice.Tangled Vines was inspired to create Tickled Pink to benefit the Breast Cancer Society of Canada. Partial proceeds are proudly donated to this worthy cause. These wines are just what we need to purge the gloom of the January rains. Come in, meet John, and taste the wines from this fun, irreverent winery!  

See You Here
