🍷 Lightning Rock Chardonnay Meets Pork Tenderloin! 🍷 Lightning Rock Chardonnay Meets Pork Tenderloin! A delicious pairing of Lightning Rock’s 2024 Dry Lake Vineyard Chardonnay with pork tenderloin, balsamic onions and juicy Bartlett pears. 🍐 Sourced from Washington’s Lake Chelan AVA, this beautifully balanced Chardonnay was cold barrel-fermented and aged for 10 months on its lees in French oak (21% new). Bottled unfined and unfiltered. 🥂 Our Tasting Notes Subtle aromas of ripe pear and stone fruit mingle with vanilla and baking spice. Meyer lemon, orchard fruit and honeysuckle shine on the palate, while gentle oak adds texture and roundness. Fresh acidity delivers a precise, elegant finish. The wine’s orchard fruit and creamy texture complemented the pears and tender pork, while its bright acidity balanced the richness of the balsamic onions. ⭐ 90 Points | $35 | Only 232 cases produced Discover more about Lightning Rock’s Summerland and Cross Border wines at BCWineTrends.com.

🥂 One of Our Three Lunessence Favourites! Lunessen 🥂 One of Our Three Lunessence Favourites! Lunessence ESV Brut Riesling 2025 | $29.99 | 92 Points ⭐ Fresh, vibrant and beautifully balanced! This elegant sparkling Riesling is crafted from 100% certified organic estate-grown fruit from Summerland Bench. Made using the Charmat method, with extended lees ageing for added complexity, just 388 cases were produced. 🍏 Tasting Notes: Delicate aromas of white blossoms, green apple and lightly toasted brioche lead to a lively palate of crisp citrus and orchard fruit. A touch of sweetness is beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity and subtle yeasty notes. A persistent, creamy mousse adds elegance and length. At $29.99, a delightful BC sparkling wine for any occasion! 🍾 11.6% alc | 92 Points #LunessenceWinery #BrutRiesling #BCWine #SparklingRiesling #SummerlandBench #OkanaganWine #OrganicWine #BCWineTrends #ExploreBCWine #WineLovers #summerlandstrong @bottleneckdrive @lunessencewine
🍷 @blackmarketwineco 2024 Collusion Series Sémillo 🍷 @blackmarketwineco 2024 Collusion Series Sémillon meets Wiener Schnitzel! 🍋 After a five-year absence, Sémillon is back at Black Market Wine Co.! Winemaker Rob Hammersley crafted this small-lot release from Arete Vineyard in Washington's Columbia Valley. Nine months in neutral and third-fill French oak, with regular lees stirring, give this wine its wonderfully luscious texture. 🥂 My Tasting Notes Inviting aromas of ripe apple, pear, citrus and honey lead to flavours of Meyer lemon curd, Anjou pear and tropical fruit. A touch of honeycomb, vibrant acidity and fine minerality carry through to a long, satisfying finish. 91 POINTS ⭐ 🍽️ Tonight's pairing: Wiener Schnitzel! The wine's vibrant acidity cuts beautifully through the richness of the crispy, golden schnitzel, while its creamy texture complements the tender veal. A squeeze of fresh lemon ties it all together! Only 125 cases produced. 🔗 More at BCWineTrends.com — link in bio. #BlackMarketWineCo #CollusionSeries #Semillon #WienerSchnitzel #WinePairing #BCWine #WashingtonWine #ColumbiaValley #OkanaganWine #BCWineTrends
🍷 Five Wines, Three Favourites! A Visit to Lunesse 🍷 Five Wines, Three Favourites! A Visit to Lunessence Winery A lovely afternoon tasting five wines from Lunessence Winery in Summerland. Three stood out from the lineup, showcasing the diversity of this organically farmed estate. Here are the five wines we tasted, with a closer look at our favourites! 🥂 2025 ESV Brut Riesling | $29.99 ⭐ One of our favourites! Made from 100% Riesling using the Charmat method, with delicate white floral aromas, racy acidity and a long finish featuring nutty and yeasty notes from extended lees contact. 🍏 2025 ESV Riesling | $26.99 A still expression of Riesling, offering an interesting contrast to its sparkling sibling. 🌼 2025 ESV Field White | $26.99 ⭐ Another favourite! This Gentil-inspired blend of Riesling (64%), Gewürztraminer (21%) and Pinot Blanc (15%) bursts with ginger spice, elderflower and white floral aromas. Juicy white peach, nectarine and mango make for a deliciously expressive white. 🌸 2025 ESV Blanc de Noirs | $28.99 An intriguing white wine made from red grapes, adding another dimension to the tasting. 🍒 2023 ESV Pinot Noir | $34.99 ⭐ Our third favourite! The first release from Lunessence's young Giant's Head vineyard. Wild-fermented and aged seven months in French oak, it delivers sour cherry, rhubarb, subtle earthy notes and bright acidity. A wonderful introduction to Lunessence's latest releases. Watch for our full tasting notes on BCWineTrends! #LunessenceWinery #SummerlandBC #BCWine #OkanaganWine #WineTasting #Riesling #PinotNoir #BCWineTrends #summerlandstrong #bcwine #lunessence #bcwinetrends @bottleneckdrive
🍷 @adegaon45th Cabernet Franc 2022 — 91 Points A 🍷 @adegaon45th Cabernet Franc 2022 — 91 Points A bold, expressive Okanagan Cabernet Franc with black cherry, plum and violet, layered with peppery spice, earthy notes and a touch of anise. The palate is structured and vibrant, with generous spice, lively acidity and polished tannins carrying through the finish. A terrific fall red, especially alongside hearty comfort food. 🍇 100% Cabernet Franc 🪵 Aged 12 months in oak 🍷 14.2% alc. ⭐ 91 Points 💰 $32.99 The 2022 vintage is featured here, and the 2023 Cabernet Franc is now available at the same $32.99 price. 🍽️ Try it with penne and Italian sausage, sage chicken with roasted root vegetables, or risotto-stuffed peppers. Another very good value from Adega on 45th Estate Winery in Osoyoos. #BCWine #BCWineTrends #OkanaganWine #CabernetFranc #Osoyoos #AdegaOn45th #WineBC #CanadianWine #FallWines #RedWine @christaleemcwatters
