    Canada definitely has some serious wines- some of my favorites come from the Niagara on the Lake area. Trius- amazing stuff!

    Okay, so maybe I look for the pinot and reisling but as with most newbies it’s basically, “Yeah, come back and see me in 5 years.”

    QOTD: Would love to get up to see BC in general as well as the wineries.

    Will BC be the new Oregon for Pinot?

    QOTD: If Gary’s organizing a trip for the 2010 Olympics, that sounds like the time to visit. Thanks for stopping at WLTV and sharing BC wines.

    Great show thanks. It’s good to hear an Australian voice on the Thunder Show, even if he’s discussing Canadian wine.

    QOTD: Already booked in summer of 2010

    Cheers

  • Very nice guest who walked the tightrope reviewing the wines he brought to the dance.

    I just noticed the Riesling is sold out on their website. Need to check elsewhere.

    QOTD: Been there, done that as an excursion from a Cour d’Alene trip in Idaho. Gorgeous countryside (he was right) with good restaurants and good wines.

    Cheers!

    P.S. Did Rex Ryan use up the cliches today? He better hope Suggs, Lewis and Bart Scott to follow him to NY.

    QOTD: Since I live in MI, BC doesn’t seem all that far away. Maybe have to make a road trip during the summer, play some golf and drink some wine.

    CRAZY that you are trying okanagan wines!!! They also have a loch-ness monster type serpent in their lake called Ogo Pogo! My dad lives in Kelowna (Heart of Okanagan) and I’ve been visiting there for 15 years… Everything he said was right… it’s absolutely GORGEOUS there…

    Wines I’ve found are pretty good… Have been on a wine tour there… They have this Pyramid wine that I remember being pretty good!

    LOVE this episode!

    Q.O.T.D. SOON!
