Thanks to a special preview night several media types were treated to the delights of Chef Koo An and his team. So many courses and so many choices on the Dockside Restaurant Dine Out menu.

A few more “non wine” suggestions on the list as we continue on through December. Now including bubbly and sparkling #FavouriteThings that are just right for Christmas and New Years.
The dinner was nothing short of fabulous. Service impeccable. The TWG Tea salon is a formal yet very comfortable room. This is where you take your mother, grandmother or favourite aunt. It also would be a fun spot to take your best girlfriend before you hit the holiday party circuit. You should try it. Please note TWG Tea on Georgia Street closes at 7:00 pm.
The blind tasting and seminar did not disappoint and I came away with a better understanding into the wines of Veneto and the Vinum & Cibus Italici Consortium.
We love the wines of Sumac Ridge so for our Holiday Gift Suggestions we are personally recommending these favourites for your holiday gift giving, host/hostess gifts, for family and for Christmas festivities.
It’s no secret that I am a huge Riesling fan and make it my life mission to discover as many BC Rieslings as are out there. I think you will enjoy the Narrative Riesling as much as I.
Look no further than your own Backyard for some terrific Holiday Gift Suggestions this season. We’re loving both the Rosé and the Blanc Noir Brut.
