🍑🥂 2025 @hestercreekwinery Viognier One of the st 🍑🥂 2025 @hestercreekwinery Viognier

One of the standout white wines of the outstanding 2025 Okanagan vintage, this South Okanagan Viognier has already earned 91 points and a place among the Top 50 Wines at the 2026 BC Wine Awards.

Aromas of ripe apricot, fresh ginger, orange blossom and honeysuckle leap from the glass. The palate is richly textured yet beautifully balanced, revealing layers of white peach, pineapple, apricot and honeycomb, accented by subtle spice and a delicate mineral note. A velvety mouthfeel and vibrant freshness carry through to a long, elegant finish.

🥂 @hestercreekwinery Riesling 2025 + Portuguese Sa 🥂 @hestercreekwinery Riesling 2025 + Portuguese Sardine Bruschetta 🇵🇹

One of the most enjoyable pairings I've discovered this summer is Hester Creek's new Riesling alongside Portuguese Sardine Bruschetta.

The wine's bright acidity and touch of residual sweetness beautifully complement the rich, savoury sardines, while its citrus, apple and floral notes lift the flavours of fresh tomato, red onion and herbs. The result is a pairing that feels fresh, vibrant and made for warm evenings on the patio.

The 2025 Riesling opens with aromas of crisp apple, honeysuckle, white peach and melon. On the palate, Honeycrisp apple, honeydew melon and citrus blossom are balanced by lively acidity and a subtle touch of sweetness, leading to a long, refreshing finish.

⭐ 92  Points

While it shines with sweet-and-sour prawns, Asian cuisine and spicy dishes, don't overlook it with Mediterranean-inspired appetizers like sardine bruschetta. The combination is outstanding.
