There’s still time to celebrate BC Wine Month with our new spring wines paired with half price shipping.
WHAT’S HAPPENING AT QUAILS’ GATE Hello Spring! April is BC Wine Month and as always we look forward to seeing you in the Wine Shop, Old Vines Restaurant or at one of our events as we celebrate.

What you may ask is the BCWAS?

Our events range from informal walk-around tastings to formal tastings with the winemakers and/or winery principals. Attendees enjoy tasting, learning and discussing wine in a relaxed atmosphere.
