“In the Spring a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.”
Lord Tennyson
This may be true but for BC Wine lovers we are much more interested in the new releases from our favourite wineries. So this is the first of the new release features that I know you will be looking forward to learning more about and tasting the wines for yourself.
These are wines that we all look forward to every year, consistently good drinkable wines that also represent good value. Enjoy these wines with friends.
Our Wines
Each variety of wine made has its own character and personality, just like the Borren boys.
2022 Pinot Blanc
This gentle pressed Pinot Blanc, blended with a touch of Chardonnay and Riesling, delivers flowers and stonefruit on the nose. Orchard fruits and lemon zest feature on the textured, mineral palate.
$22.99 available online and at the winery
2022 Riesling Dry
Intensely aromatic citrus bursts from the glass while the palate boasts tart lime and green apple. Bracing acidity makes this dry, lively Riesling an ideal summer sipper.
$23.99 available online and at the winery
2022 Riesling Classic
This iconic Riesling, our flagship, is bursting with aromas of juicy stone fruit, delicate florals and luscious tropical fruits. Dynamic and engaging, the palate plays between succulent fruit and racy acidity. Nice on its own but also pairs well with something spicy.
$24.99 available online and at the winery
2022 Rosé
This off-dry blend of Pinot Noir and Merlot showcases strawberry and grapefruit on the nose. The palate boasts sumptuous strawberries and cream with a crisp citrus finish.
$24.99 available online and at the winery
2021 Zweigelt
This fresh, juice varietal is the perfect summertime sipper. Intense berries, fresh cranberry sauce and just a hint of spice make this dry, light-bodied red a great companion for picnics, barbecues and patios.
$25.99 available online and at the winery
2020 Merlot
Characters of ripe plums and dark cherries with lovely acidity and notes of cacao on the palate. A big and balanced wine with a touch of vanilla and a mocha finish.
$26.99 available online and at the winery
The Patio at Four Shadows is ready to welcome you!
Tucked directly behind the tasting room, we have comfortable seating with a view of our vineyard. The crickets, birds and a nearby rooster will serenade you as you make your way through a tasting of 6 of our wines. You’ll see that our team has put in a lot of hard work on the lawn; they’ve installed an irrigation system, levelled things out and sown new grass.
For now, come visit us for a tasting on the patio, scout out your new favourite picnic spot and keep an eye on our site for an opening date for the picnic lawn!
