The tomato base is alive with great quantities of garlic, subtler herbs such as thyme, celery (substitute for fennel) and saffron. But it is the inclusiion of the aioli and rouille (if using) that take this dish over the top.
“Their wines always have good structure which makes them so very food friendly. These are clearly wines made with passion.” Sam Hauck aka @Sam_WineTeacher
It’s September and a time of new beginnings. Recently TIME Family of Wines announced some changes to their look and sense of place. With this growth and change comes some new branding, a new look and a reimagined experience.
Church & State Wines features two distinctly different vineyard properties located in the Okanagan and on Vancouver Island. Our meticulous wine-making process is driven by a passion to make wines that capture a sense of place, drawing from the terroir to showcase a sense of character, depth and the elegance of our land.
Our very first red in a bottle! Rubeus/Rubicon: Named after a river in Italy (the Rubicon) that marked the point of no return. True to the origins of this wine, a portion of the different varietals used in this blend are co-fermented.
This summer we are thrilled to introduce a new expression for our wine portfolio. Hester Creek is an estate winery with a unique, pioneering past and a modern, state-of the art facility.
This was a delightfully, wonderful choice to pair with the creamy, rich pasta and fresh garden vegetables. The wine was both light and complex.Smooth and crisp with aromas of Granny Smith apples.
Fort Berens have expanded their estate vineyards to 38 acres with the addition of the 18-acre Red Rock Vineyard. This brings 6 acres of Merlot, 5 acres of Cabernet Franc, 3.5 acres of Riesling, 2 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon and 1 acre of Grüner Veltliner.
Kalala, meaning “Miracle Place”, is the symbol of our commitment to harmony with nature, organic viticulture practices, and our wines. An award winning winery located on the upper bench of West Kelowna, the Okanagan Valley.
So for all of you BC wine lovers who put your max price point at $25.00 (and I know there are a lot of you) then your search is over. Check out these new releases from Hester Creek and get shopping! #wineonline
