One of our favourite wineries to visit Poplar Grove sits high above the lake with cascading vistas that can be enjoyed from their restaurant and patio. It is a lovely place to visit.
Well known for their fabulous Rieslings and Pinot Noirs we suggest you try Tantalus Chardonnays. We love them and that’s why they are included in our #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions.
We think you are going to enjoy these wines as much as we do. Some lucky wine lovers on your list are going to be very happy! Thornhaven wines also make the perfect host or hostess gift this holiday season.
I am a big fan of the Okanagan Falls region and love so many wineries and their wines produced there. OK Falls is a very welcoming environment and everyone I’ve encountered has been so friendly and welcoming. Maybe that’s why they make great wines, wines you want to share and celebrate.
Indigenous World Winery merges modern culture with Indigenous history. The Indigenous first peoples of the Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys located in British Columbia Canada are the Okanagan Syilx people.
I think one of the most interested chores of the evening was making pasta. I had never made pasta before but thankfully it’s quite forgiving. With just a hand cranked pasta maker it is also a bit of a workout. Two of the guests did all the pasta for us which included several double turns through the pasta maker until the dough was thin enough for slicing.
Right now you can save 10% until December 15 (including boxes sets, excluding Members exclusives) while quantities last with free shipping within BC for orders of 12 bottles. That’s a deal worth looking into.
For our #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions we are recommending two different gifts; one the gift of Untangled Craft Cider and two; the gift of great dining with a Gift Certificate from Row Fourteen. Can’t decide – choose both!
One thing you can count on from Tinhorn Creek is consistently good wines. There is an undeniable history behind every bottle of wine produced. That is one of the reasons Tinhorn wines make our #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions list.
Bauhaus is a Vancouver institution in it’s own right. Dare I say a “classy” restaurant serving a mix of both contemporary and traditional European dishes with a German flair. Let me explain for anyone who might say that German food is not really on their radar when it comes to fine dining. Fair enough but Bauhaus has managed, over a considerable length of time, to marry fine dining along with the German dishes you might be expecting.
