BRITISH Winter is coming and it is time to start prepping for holiday parties and festive dinners. These are ideal for sumptuous meals, celebrations or host gifts that COLUMBIA express the great offerings of BC wineries. winefeature HAYWIRE, THE BUB Crisp and refreshing, this Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blend is a great starter for an evening of celebration. Notes of salty minerals, toasted fresh baking and green apples and a finishing of bright acidity to enhance oysters and soft cheeses. CHURCH AND STATE, TREBELLA This Rhone style wine of Roussanne, Marsanne, and Viognier, offers a nice break from the popular offerings of mass produced BC wines with a terroir focused subtle nose and complex palate. Lemon rind, nectarine, herbal vines and straw filters to rich flavours of yeast, honey and toasty oak. Complements well with luxurious seafoods and creamy risottos. MISCONDUCT WINE CO., SUSPECT SERIES PINOT NOIR A flavour for the region is clearly evident in this pinot noir, single vineyard wine. Misconduct knows how to express the heritage of the region, with notes of black cherries and earthy mushroomy underbrush. It is diverse enough for full bodied pinot and can withstand a big stew, or baked salmon. LA STELLA, FORTISSIMO Bold and paying homage to its Tuscan roots, this Merlot, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc blend is as idyllic as its vineyard location (see images). Big punches of tobacco, hints of spices, leather and young black cherries and blackberry, with a full body and layers of structured tannins. Haul this out for big roast dinners and long fire side nights. VISTA D’ORO, DORO The flagship of Vista D’oro, this fortified walnut wine is a blend of Marechal Foch, Merlot, Vista D’oro green walnuts and BC Brandy. This artisanal port-style fortified of velvety sips, with fruit dark raisins and dark chocolate cherries is a great dessert to accompany grandma’s baking, panettone or chocolate mousse. WINE NOT? I am the ‘concierge’ for our agents, as I assist them with company programs, relocation services, and marketing. I’ve worked in BC and the UK in restaurants by ALYSSA MORI where the culture of wine is integral to a meal. My tastes are eclectic and I appreciate many types, styles and tastes. I want to make this approachable and fun and showcase a variety of flavours from BC to enjoy.66
