🍂🍷 Four autumn reds from @township7 —and three sco 🍂🍷 Four autumn reds from @township7 —and three scoring 93 points or higher! The 2024 Interlude collection impressed, from a powerful, polished Syrah to an easygoing red blend we enjoyed with pizza. Swipe through for the wines and our pairings. ➡️ 🍷 Interlude Syrah — 94 Points / $44.97 My standout of the collection. Blackberry, black plum and blueberry meet dark chocolate and peppercorn spice, with a plush texture and beautifully smooth tannins. Reminiscent of a premium Australian Shiraz. 🍷 Interlude Merlot — 93 Points / $33 Concentrated black plum and blackberry, layered with dark chocolate, graphite and mineral notes. Velvety tannins and lively acidity carry a long finish. Particularly appealing value. 🍷 Interlude Cabernet Sauvignon — 93 Points / $37.98 Bold and full-bodied, with black cherry, cassis, baking spice, tobacco and leather. Firm, integrated tannins frame a long, savoury finish. We enjoyed it with bruschetta. 🍷 Interlude Red — 91 Points / $29.97 An unusual Pinot Noir-led blend with juicy red cherry, strawberry and gentle spice. Soft tannins develop a light grip towards the finish—a relaxed companion to pizza night. 🍕 Following the devastating 2024 Okanagan freeze, Mary McDermott and her team crafted these wines in Naramata from Washington and California grapes. The Interlude program kept the winery working while its BC vineyards recovered. Full reviews, vineyard details and food pairings at BCWineTrends.com—link in bio. Samples provided by Township 7. Scores and tasting impressions are my own. #Township7 #BCWineTrends #WineReview #AutumnWines #WinePairing
🦃🥂 Two Narrative sparklers at our Thanksgiving tab 🦃🥂 Two Narrative sparklers at our Thanksgiving table—alongside roast turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing and all the trimmings. Narrative XC Method brings bright citrus, strawberry, raspberry and white peach aromas, followed by crisp apple, tart rhubarb and a refreshing lemon-lime finish. Gentle bubbles and a creamy mouthfeel make this rosé a lovely companion to turkey dinner. Made from Naramata-grown Auxerrois and Chardonnay, it spends 90 days in Charmat tanks for secondary fermentation—hence XC, the Roman numeral for 90. 🍂 The new Narrative XC Sparkling 0.5 offers a lighter option at just 0.5% alcohol. Pale pink with delicate bubbles, it delivers fresh citrus and strawberry aromas, ripe apple flavours and subtle minerality. With only 200 cases in this first dealcoholized release, Okanagan Crush Pad is inviting wine lovers to taste and share their feedback. Two different pours, one shared celebration. Both $27.99. 🥂 @narrativewinery #NarrativeWine #OkanaganCrushPad #BCWineTrends #ThanksgivingDinner #SparklingRosé #WinePairing #DealcoholizedWine
🍷🍅 Township 7 Interlude Cabernet Sauvignon 2024 wi 🍷🍅 Township 7 Interlude Cabernet Sauvignon 2024 with bruschetta — a flavour-packed start to the evening. This bold, full-bodied Cabernet opens with ripe blackberry, baked black cherry and cassis, layered with baking spice, tobacco and leather. Concentrated dark fruit, dark chocolate and earthy notes follow on the palate, with well-integrated tannins carrying a long, savoury finish. The toasted bread, ripe tomatoes and herbs made a delicious companion to this richly textured red. Crafted in Naramata from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grown at Double D Vineyard in Washington’s Rocky Reach AVA. Aged for 18 months in French and American oak, with no new oak—letting the fruit take centre stage. ⭐ 93 Points / $37.98 🍷 Alcohol: 14.9% #Township7 #CabernetSauvignon #BCWineTrends #WinePairing #Bruschetta @township7
🍷 Township 7 Interlude Syrah 2024 — 94 Points Inky 🍷 Township 7 Interlude Syrah 2024 — 94 Points Inky and almost black in the glass, this bold, full-bodied Syrah has the generosity and polish of a premium Australian Shiraz. Expressive aromas of blackberry, black plum, and blueberry lead to a rich palate layered with dark chocolate, pencil shavings, and a subtle touch of peppercorn spice. Beautifully smooth, juicy tannins bring a plush texture—an impressive combination of power and finesse. Made from 100% Syrah, with equal parts Four Palms Vineyard in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley and Double D Vineyard in Washington’s Rocky Reach AVA, near Orondo. The vineyard lots were fermented separately, then spent 18 months in 77% French and 23% American oak (no new oak), letting that gorgeous fruit shine. 🍖 Pair with five-spice baby back ribs or an earthy mushroom farrotto. 14.9% alcohol | 643 cases | Vegan @township7 @josephinenhutte #BCWineTrends #Township7 #InterludeSyrah #Syrah #Shiraz #RussianRiverValley #RockyReachAVA #WineReview #WineAndFood
🍷🍔 A great burger deserves a great Merlot! Tonigh 🍷🍔 A great burger deserves a great Merlot! Tonight’s pairing: Township 7 Interlude Merlot 2024 with a burger, crispy onion rings and fries. Casual comfort food meets a seriously satisfying red. Crafted from 100% Merlot grown at sustainably certified Double D Vineyard in Washington’s Rocky Reach AVA, this wine delivers intense blackberry and black cherry aromas, followed by concentrated black plum, dark chocolate, graphite and a distinctive mineral character. Velvety tannins and lively acidity balance the generous dark fruit. An excellent match for a juicy burger, with enough freshness to keep you reaching for another bite of those golden onion rings. 🍔🍟 Fermented in large wooden foudres and aged for 18 months in French and American oak, with no new oak used, the emphasis stays firmly on the vineyard’s fruit. An impressive Washington-grown Merlot from the Township 7 team. 93 Points. 🍷 What’s your favourite wine to pour with a burger? @township7 #BCWineTrends #Township7 #InterludeMerlot #Merlot #WashingtonWine #RockyReachAVA #DoubleDVineyard #WineAndFood #BurgerAndWine #ComfortFood
Three @nobleridgewinery wines to bring a little Ok Three @nobleridgewinery wines to bring a little Okanagan Falls character to your autumn table. 🍂🍷 🥂 The Pink One 2022 | $45 This traditional-method sparkling rosé is made from 100% Pinot Noir, with 31 months on lees. Wild strawberry, raspberry and citrus zest meet fine bubbles and subtle brioche notes, finishing crisp and elegant. A lovely way to start the evening. 🍷 Noble Pinot Noir 2025 | $28 Vibrant red and black fruits, delicate floral notes and a touch of earth lead to a smooth, lingering finish. Aged eight months in French oak barrels, this approachable Pinot would be a welcome companion to roast turkey, salmon or mushroom dishes. 🍷 Reserve Meritage 2022 | $43 A blend of 60% Merlot, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc and 4% Malbec, aged 14 months in French and American oak. Black cherry, blackberry and dried herbs mingle with cedar and vanilla, supported by firm tannins and bright acidity. Bring on the roast beef or lamb! Bubbles, Pinot and a hearty red blend—which would you open first? #NobleRidge #BCWine #OkanaganFalls #OkanaganWine #BCWineTrends
