"...and 6% Cinsault..."

"Join us beginning Tuesday as we sample the new 2008 Road 13 Honest John's Red ($18.99). This version is a blend of 41% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Pinot Noir and 6% Cinsault. The Honest John line is a tribute to Honest John Oliver, BC Premier from 1918-1927. His greatest achievement was the construction of the irrigation canal that transformed the (Golden Mile) South Okanagan into outstanding farmland.

See You Here!"

This Weekend - Arrowleaf!!
Midweek - Road 13!!

Great New Wines!!
Greetings! 

Happy belated St. Patricks Day!  Hope you had a safe and fun festive day.

A lot of people have been inquiring about the Decantus and Vinturi aerators.

To clear some confusion, they are the same items, just different brands (ie. Toyota and Honda)  They both perform extremely well and are made with exceptional quality.  We've sold a large amount of both and have had only positive comments from all of the feedback.

As to which ones better, I really don't know what to say.  There's a bunch of reviews for each and I'd say it looks pretty neutral so far.

You may also notice that we have the stands for the aerators as well.  With this attachment, you can do your aerating hands free!  Also, it makes a great centre piece and conversation piece!

Cheers,
Simon Chang

Arrowleaf!!

"...complex aromas of raspberry, cherry and cassis..."


"Join us this weekend as we sample a range of wines from Arrowleaf Cellars! From their 16 acre vineyard in Okanagan Centre, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris and Bacchus date back to 1986 and subsequent plantings of Zweigelt, Merlot and Vidal were added in 1998 to 2000.  Most of the high altitude Okanagan Centre vineyard is situated on a steep westerly slope and consists of well-drained gravelly glacial till and sandy loam.

We will begin with the 2008 Pinot Gris ($15.99). The Pinot Gris grows on the steepest part of the vineyard, producing subtle flavours yet retaining plenty of natural acidity. The resulting wine shows ripe apple, pear, melon and delicate floral aromas. It is complex and full-bodied with a refreshing acidity.

The 2007 Unoaked Chardonnay ($12.99) is fermented and aged in stainless steel. It has a lovely bouquet of green apple that mingles with pear, apricot and tropical aromas. The flavours are crisp and flavourful with a long creamy finish.

Next up is the 2008 Pinot Noir ($17.99). This is a blend of fruit grown in Carr's Landing, West Kelowna and Kelowna.It's a medium bodied red wine with smooth tannins and shows raspberry, strawberry, cherry and violet aromas with spicy, and smoky undertones.

Finally we will treat ourselves to the 2005 Solstice ($22.99). Solstice is a blend of Arrowleaf's best Merlot, Zweigelt and Lemberger grapes. The blend is aged in French oak puncheons for 18 months. It shows complex aromas of raspberry, cherry and cassis with spicy clove and black pepper nuances.  On the palate it is full-bodied with a generous mouthfeel and well-integrated tannins.

See You Here
