Cheers to the highly anticipated release of 2020 Martin’s Lane Pinot Noirs 🍷

Thank you to the winemaker, Shane Munn, and Anthony Gismondi, for guiding us through the release of these beautiful local Pinot Noirs from BC next to regional benchmarks from around the world.

#6 most planted grape in BC (719.52 acres planted

#6 most planted grape in BC (719.52 acres planted as of 2019) is celebrating its day today. Happy #CabernetFrancDay 🍷

While Cabernet Franc thrives in the Okanagan Valley, you can find it as far as Lillooet. As @KurtisKolt once mentioned, seeing a single-variety wine made from the grape outside of France’s Loire Valley and bits and bobs around Napa, California, is a rarity but the local #bcwine Cab Franc bursts with freshness, including ripe, delicious red fruit and a dusting of hallmark wild sagebrush seen dotted around the landscape.

Check out the perfect food pairing recipes for #CabFrancDay, including this delicious Pull-Apart Pizza Bun Wreath from @fraicheliving on the @winesofbc website. And let us know in the comments below which #CabernetFranc is in your glass today? 👇🏻

Chianti wines have been made in Tuscany since at l

Chianti wines have been made in Tuscany since at least 1716, and for many years were associated with budget-friendly spaghetti dinners and the cute straw basket known as a “fiasco” that the bottle was wrapped in. They are predominantly made from Sangiovese grapes, which have cherry and other red fruit notes, and savoury flavours like roasted pepper, tomato, leather, tobacco, earth and thyme.

This year we got to taste quite a few Chianti bottles promoted at BC Liquor Stores in August, and we were delighted by some new facts we discovered:

🍷 Chianti isn’t cheap spaghetti vino anymore, but an elegant and well-structured wine that offers good value for high quality.
🍝 The distinctive fruit and savoury notes of contemporary Chianti are beautifully integrated, making them versatile and food-friendly

It’s well established that wine bottles have means for fraud and counterfeit protection, including special inks, holograms and computer tagging. But the premium cheeses of the world?

Now the food industry has joined in with high-tech, food-safe microchips to prevent the king of cheese, Parmigiano Reggiano, from becoming the object of fraudulent imitation.

In the other bubbly news, a remarkable chemical physicist Gérard Liger-Belair (a member of an acclaimed Burgundian wine family) has made bubbles the object of his study for decades now, starting with his PhD and helping the world understand the fizzy wonders of Champagne, as well as sea spray, cloud formation and hydrogen bubbles on Saturn’s moon, Titan.
