@township7 Riesling 2023 Paired with Baked Steelhe @township7 Riesling 2023
Paired with Baked Steelhead Trout 🐟

From Fool’s Gold Vineyard in North Oliver, this 100% Riesling is all about precision and purity. Fermented בעיקר in concrete (with a touch of stainless), it delivers both fresh aromatics and subtle texture.

🍏 Apple blossom, stone fruit
🍋 Key lime, Meyer lemon
🍍 Golden apple, hints of pineapple & apricot

Dry, Trocken-style, with an almost electric, lightly effervescent feel on the palate. Bright acidity drives a clean, mineral finish.

A perfect match for steelhead — the acidity cuts through the richness beautifully.

Alc. 12.8% | pH 3.15 | TA 7.1 | RS 4.9

@quailsgate Trio 🍷🌿 | Spring Pairings Done Right T @quailsgate Trio 🍷🌿 | Spring Pairings Done Right
Three fresh releases, three spot-on food matches: this is Okanagan spring in a glass.

Quail’s Gate Rosé 2025
🍓 Pairing: Strawberry Rose Tart
Bright, juicy and vibrant, with red berries and citrus lift — a natural with sweet-tart desserts.

Quail’s Gate Chenin Blanc 2025
🍅 Pairing: Heirloom Tomato Salad
Crisp, textured, and quietly complex. The acidity and subtle richness play beautifully with ripe tomatoes and fresh herbs.

Quail’s Gate Heirloom White 2025
🍋 Pairing: Meyer Lemon & Thyme Pasta
Zesty, aromatic, and refreshing — perfect with citrus-driven dishes and light savoury flavours.
Simple idea, well executed: match fresh BC wines with fresh, seasonal food. 👍

@bluegrousewines Pinot Noir 2023 Vancouver Island @bluegrousewines  Pinot Noir 2023
Vancouver Island in a glass 🌿🍒
Bright, elegant, and coastal-cool — this Pinot Noir brings:
🍓 Wild strawberry & cherry
🌹 Subtle floral lift
🍂 Soft spice & earthy nuance
Silky texture. Fresh acidity. Pure Cowichan Valley character.
Light, refined, and dangerously drinkable 😄

Four bottles. One island identity. 🌿 @BlueGrouse Four bottles. One island identity. 🌿

@BlueGrouse continues to show why Vancouver Island deserves a serious place in the BC wine conversation.

This lineup captures it perfectly. Cool-climate precision, bright natural acidity, and a refined, understated style that’s all about balance.

In the glass:
🍐 Pinot Gris 2024 – fresh orchard fruit, citrus, clean and vibrant
🍒 Pinot Noir 2023 – silky red berries, subtle spice, elegant structure
🍏 Chardonnay 2024 – lemon, apple, light toast with mineral lift
🌸 Rosé 2024 – grapefruit, wild strawberry, crisp coastal freshness

There’s no excess here, just well-made wines that reflect place, not ego.

Quietly becoming one of BC’s most consistent producers.
