Owl’s Brew Boozy Tea Darjeeling Tea And Hibiscus Flowers

Covert Farms Family Estate Rosé wine

Owl's Brew Boozy Tea ticks a lot of boxes. Of course, being made with fresh-brewed tea is the focus. But the female-founded company strives to communicate transparency. All flavours are free of parabens, artificial flavours, and sugar substitutes. Gold star! The Darjeeling tea and hibiscus flower combination is made from organic Darjeeling tea. The flavours are light and fruity with just the right hint of citrus and blossom. Refreshing and smooth.

Are Okanagan GSM blends safe(ish) from climate change?

With the release for @hestercreek1968’s latest wine, a GSM blend, it got me thinking - how many Okanagan Valley producers believe warm climate Southern Rhône varieties, like grenache, syrah, and mourvèdre, will shine in the face of increasing summer temperatures?

What happens when you eat an appy, main, and desse

What happens when you eat an appy, main, and dessert for every meal while visiting Southern Rhône? You end up with a lot of food pictures that deserve to be showcased.

Europeans eat different, three courses are customary. They indulge, savor, and don’t need snacks in between meals.

I’ve always been that person that travels with snacks, in case gluten free meal options are a challenge. But this trip, I didn’t need a single one.

So enjoy my reel of food 🥗- I know I did! 😋

🍷✨ When you find a 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape in your collection and wonder if it’s still in its prime —

🤔🍇 In this case, I was surprised to discover that I should have drunk it yesteryear. There was nearly no fruit character, and it had a bitter quality.

But really, all the Southern Rhône vintage charts say 2017 is still safely in its ‘drink’ window. So what happened here? Did I get a bum bottle?

Any vintage experts have any insight?

Visiting the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA in early May

Visiting the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA in early May was the perfect dose of Cali sun ☀️ I needed.

Standing on mountain tops 🏔️, strolling the slopes, driving through redwood forests 🌳 - this massive region has limitless views to take in. The wines 🍷 are equally impressive, with a multitude of personalities delivering unique, fun, and expressive wines.

Full article is coming about the smaller (boutique perhaps?) wineries in this expansive AVA. Keep your eyes 👀 out!

🍇✨ 1 Mill Road wines are nothing short of dis

🍇✨ 1 Mill Road wines are nothing short of distinctive. I relished tasting through the focused portfolio with winemaker Ben Bryant last month, each bottle offering laser-like focus and individuality.

A relatively new venture for Bryant and partner in wine, Kate Truscott, the duo took over 1 Mill Road from David and Cynthia Enns, founders of Laughing Stock Vineyards, in 2022.

For Bryant, former chief winemaker for Pernod Ricard Australia and VP of winemaker at Mission Hill, it's about crafting single-vineyard expressions while maintaining sustainable practices.

"Our view is to be single-vineyard with a very purposeful intent in how we grow," says Bryant.

🌟 1 Mill Road Highlights:
* 2023 Rosé: From a 2.5-acre parcel on the East Kelowna Slopes sub-GI. A clean thread in style from 2022 with juicy acidity and refreshing red berry fruit flavours. The 2023 has a textural richness on the palate from a slightly warmer vintage. Increased barrel and lees stirring gives the impression of weight and viscosity, offering a layered mid-palate.
* 2022 Chardonnay: From the same East Kelowna slopes vineyard — aged in French barrels (12% new). The acidity is persistent from start to finish and marries well with the oak. Flavours of peach, apple blossom, and wet stone, restrained and non-overt. An anti-Okanagan style.
* 2022 Black Pine Pinot Noir: Produced on a 4-acre Naramate Bench vineyard, one of the bench’s most northerly sites. 20% whole cluster, aged for 9 months in 1, 2 and 3-year-old French barriques. Incredible brightness and perfume intensity. The palate offers an integrity and structure, perfectly marrying bright red fruit flavours with acidity.
* 2022 Home Block Pinot Noir: Home Block is a 1.5-acre vineyard on the Naramata Bench, planted in 2013. 30% whole cluster and fermented in foudres, this wine highlights the stability of the growing season, growing gracefully without heat spikes. The vine age offers riper fruit flavours with fine cocoa powder-esque tannins — excellent integration with a seamless texture.

Thank you, Ben and Katie, for sharing your wines!

Six-pack shipments are available directly from the winery across Canada. https://www.1millroad.ca

💜✨ Like sippin’ on sunshine with a splash of elegance!

A couple of weeks ago, I had the chance to indulge in an evening of people-watching at Fairmont Pacific Rim in Vancouver. While my husband watched visiting NHL players from Nashville stroll through the lobby, I gawked at the amazing cocktails on offer.

Ultimately, I went with the Water Lily Royale, the ultimate sip for those who like their cocktails with a side of fancy.

Ingredients: Ford gin, Cointreau, Violette, a zing of acid blend, topped off with bubbly Prosecco perfection! 🥂💜✨

What a dream 💭 to roam the vineyards of @crulirac and @vinsderasteau.

With the Mistral 💨 in my hair and spring in full swing 🌸, it was a divine discovery of distinct wines and Southern Rhône biodiversity.

I need to go back, if not just for a day to explore more of Avignon - what a place! 👀 🏰

In my latest for @decanter, I dive into Gamay from BC and Ontario. Thank you to @winetrackmind, @bachelder_wines, @leaningpostwine, and @rustwine for helping shape the story and provide insight into why people love Canadian Gamay and how the grape thrives on opposite sides of the country.
