@township7 Pinot Gris 2025 🍐✨ Naramata Bench A th @township7 Pinot Gris 2025 🍐✨
Naramata Bench

A three-vineyard blend from Loveridge, Paisley, and the Estate vineyard, fermented entirely in stainless steel at cool temperatures to lock in freshness and aromatic lift.

Alc. 14.3% | pH 3.41 | TA 6.3 | RS 2.7 | Vegan

Bright, clean, and fruit-forward 🍑🍐
Pear, apricot, and honeysuckle lead, backed by a subtle wet-stone edge. The palate is smooth and vibrant with orchard fruit, crisp acidity, and a refreshing mineral finish.

Balanced, versatile, and very easy to like.
91 Points

Pairing 🐟
Try it with grilled steelhead, roast chicken, or a simple summer salad.

BC Wine has… @gonecrackers 🧀🍷 Tasting your way thr BC Wine has… @gonecrackers 🧀🍷
Tasting your way through BC wines this weekend? You might need a reset—and this is it.
Gone Crackers have quietly become a winery staple across BC for a reason. Small-batch, flavour-packed, and designed to cleanse the palate without stealing the show.
From Undressed (the ultimate palate reset) to bold picks like Blue Cheese & Cracked Pepper and Parmesan & Rosemary, there’s a perfect match for every glass.
And if you’re heading into dessert wine territory…
👉 Gone Kooky has you covered 🍪✨
Think:
🥥 Coconut-Oat + fortified Gewürztraminer
☕ Café Dream + after-dinner wine
🍂 Cinnamon & Spice for cozy pairings
These aren’t just snacks—they elevate the entire tasting experience.
📍 Available at select BC wineries + fine food shops

@bluegrousewines Pinot Gris 2024 ($30.99) From es @bluegrousewines Pinot Gris 2024 ($30.99)

From estate, Enrico, and Saison Vineyards, this Pinot Gris is fermented in concrete and neutral French oak, with a touch of malolactic adding texture and roundness.

🍏🍋 Aromas: baked apple, Meyer lemon, subtle caramel
🍐 Palate: green apple, pear, honeydew, hint of butterscotch
⚖️ Style: creamy yet fresh, beautifully balanced
⛰️ Finish: clean, mineral, wet-stone edge

Bright acidity keeps everything lifted, while the texture adds real depth. Classic Vancouver Island precision with a richer twist.

@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. 👍
