🏆 Canada's Best Sparkling Wine! 🥂 Congratulations 🏆 Canada's Best Sparkling Wine! 🥂

Congratulations to @nobleridgewinery The ONE 2019 has been crowned Best Sparkling Wine at the 2026 All Canadian Wine Championships, a well-deserved honour for one of British Columbia's benchmark traditional-method sparkling wines.

This is everything great BC sparkling should be: elegant, precise and beautifully complex. Extended lees aging brings creamy brioche and toasted pastry notes, while vibrant citrus, crisp green apple, saline minerality and a long, stony finish create a wine of remarkable balance and finesse.

I awarded The ONE 2019 94 Points, and this latest national trophy confirms what many BC wine lovers already know, Okanagan Falls is producing sparkling wines that can stand with the very best.

🥂 If you haven't experienced this exceptional wine, now is the perfect time. Only $40 while supplies last.

🍷 BC wine is back. After the devastating January 🍷 BC wine is back.

After the devastating January 2024 cold event, seeing winery shelves once again filled with exceptional BC-grown wines is something worth celebrating.

@blastedchurch four 2025 releases showcase everything we love about the Okanagan. Vibrant fruit, crisp acidity and outstanding balance.

⭐ Sauvignon Blanc – 91 Points
⭐ Unorthodox Chardonnay – 91+ Points
⭐ Viognier – 92 Points
⭐ Blaufränkisch Rosé – 92 Points

Congratulations to winemaker Evan Saunders and the entire Blasted Church team on a terrific start to the 2025 vintage. Here's to the return of great BC wines! 🍷

2025 @township7 Provenance Series Rosé ($28.97) A 2025 @township7 Provenance Series Rosé ($28.97)

A beautifully polished Okanagan rosé from Township 7 — fresh, vibrant and summer-ready.

Bright red berry fruit, lifted citrus, crisp acidity and a clean, refreshing finish make this a terrific patio wine and a natural match for seafood, charcuterie or grilled chicken. 91 Points.

Another strong 2025 BC rosé release from Township 7. 🍷🌸

🍷 Some wines deserve a second look. @churchandsta 🍷 Some wines deserve a second look.

@churchandstatewines State's 2020 Trebella is one of them. This Rhône-inspired blend of Viognier, Roussanne and Marsanne has aged beautifully, showing just how rewarding patience can be.

Layers of white peach, apricot, nectarine, tropical fruit, honey, almond and a hint of vanilla are wrapped in a rich, beautifully textured palate with a long, complex finish. My advice? Don't overchill it. Let it warm slightly and you'll discover even more depth and character.

🍽️ Pair it with Dijon mustard and breadcrumb-crusted salmon, roast chicken or creamy seafood dishes.

92 Points ⭐️

Great wine doesn't always have to be the newest vintage.

✨ Some sparkling wines celebrate the moment. Other ✨ Some sparkling wines celebrate the moment. Others become the moment.

The 2022 @township7 Seven Stars Aurora is firmly in the second category.

Thirty months en tirage have transformed 100% Okanagan Falls Pinot Noir into a beautifully refined Blanc de Noirs, layering freshly baked brioche, delicate strawberry, crisp citrus and golden apple over a silky, creamy mousse. Vibrant acidity and remarkable precision carry through to a long, elegant finish.

🍾 93 Points

Pair it with lobster, duck à l'orange, mushroom risotto or simply good company and something worth celebrating.

Not all rosés are made for the patio. @bottegawine Not all rosés are made for the patio. @bottegawinestudio 

Some are made for the dinner table.

🍓 Seven Directions 2025 Estate Grenache Rosé is one of those rare wines that stops you in your tracks. Barrel fermented for remarkable texture and depth, it layers wild strawberry, cranberry, white peach and dragon fruit over a long, salty, mineral finish that could only come from the Similkameen.

For a first estate Grenache Rosé, this is nothing short of spectacular.

🍷 94 Points

Pair it with steamed BC mussels, grilled salmon, duck breast, or simply a sunset and good company.
