đŸ· @blackmarketwineco 2024 Collusion Series SĂ©millo đŸ· @blackmarketwineco 2024 Collusion Series SĂ©millon meets Wiener Schnitzel! 🍋 After a five-year absence, SĂ©millon 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. đŸ„‚ 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 ⭐ đŸœïž 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
đŸ· Five Wines, Three Favourites! A Visit to Lunesse đŸ· 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! đŸ„‚ 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. đŸŒŒ 2025 ESV Field White | $26.99 ⭐ Another favourite! This Gentil-inspired blend of Riesling (64%), GewĂŒrztraminer (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
đŸ· @adegaon45th Cabernet Franc 2022 — 91 Points A đŸ· @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 đŸȘ” Aged 12 months in oak đŸ· 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. đŸœïž 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
đŸ· Baco Noir + Spaghetti & Meatballs — a perfect fa đŸ· Baco Noir + Spaghetti & Meatballs — a perfect fall pairing. 🍝 Tonight’s bottle is @ancienthillestatewinery Baco Noir, one of BC’s rarest reds and a wine that seems made for a hearty bowl of spaghetti and meatballs in rich tomato sauce. Baco Noir’s naturally bright acidity works beautifully with tomato-based dishes, while its dark fruit and spice have enough depth for the meatballs. The Ancient Hill Baco Noir is a gorgeous, deeply coloured red, showing ripe black cherry and dark plum, layered with warm baking spice, chocolate, vanilla and a touch of butterscotch. Soft yet powerful on the palate, with a lush texture and a lingering, spicy finish. 91 Points. Ancient Hill produces only about 140 cases, making this a genuine small-lot Okanagan rarity. đŸ·đŸ Sometimes the simple pairings are the best.

🍋 Lightning Rock Dry Lake Vineyard Chardonnay 2024 🍋 Lightning Rock Dry Lake Vineyard Chardonnay 2024 ⭐ 90 Points | $35 A fresh, precise Chardonnay from @lightningrockwinery, sourced from Dry Lake Vineyard in Washington’s Lake Chelan AVA. Whole-cluster pressed and cold barrel-fermented, followed by full malolactic fermentation and 10 months on gross lees in French oak (21% new). Bottled unfined and unfiltered. Subtle aromas of ripe pear and stone fruit mingle with vanilla and baking spice. The palate brings Meyer lemon, orchard fruit and honeysuckle, with gentle oak adding texture and roundness. Vibrant acidity keeps everything fresh, balanced and precise through the finish. 13.1% alc | 232 cases | 90 Points A nicely restrained style of Chardonnay where the oak supports rather than dominates the fruit. #LightningRockWinery #Chardonnay #BCWineTrends #LakeChelanWine #Summerlandstrong #OkanaganWine #WineReview #ChardonnayLovers
đŸ„‚ @solverowines Blanc de Noir 2023 — 92 Points So đŸ„‚ @solverowines Blanc de Noir 2023 — 92 Points Solvero’s first Traditional Method sparkling wine is crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grown at its Happy Valley and Garnet Valley vineyards. Fermented in equal parts neutral French oak and stainless steel, it spent 20 months en tirage before being disgorged with zero dosage. Fresh lemon zest, green apple and orchard pear lead into layers of brioche and toasted almond. Vibrant acidity, fine chalky minerality and a persistent mousse carry through to a long finish of citrus and toasted pastry. A beautifully precise, dry sparkling wine from Garnet Valley. $40 | 12.3% alc. | 92 Points #SolveroWines #BlancDeNoir #BCSparklingWine #TraditionalMethod #BCWine #OkanaganWine #GarnetValley #Summerlandstrong #PinotNoir #WineWednesday @townhallbrands
