Cedar Creek Winery

Spring is in the air and BC wineries have a vibrant bouquet of freshly picked BC VQA wines on offer. Renew your affection for BC’s homegrown gems as you sample the latest releases and connect with the winemakers behind the labels.

house wine is thrilled to be celebrating BC wines at the newest hot spot in the city, Vancouver Urban Winery. I’ve already attended several events here and it’s a great venue for hosting wine and food pairing events such as this one.

Lifford Wine and Spirits Tasting-26

In addition to wines from all five of BC’s wine growing regions, Sip Into Spring With BC VQA will also cover BC’s wine subregions: Kelowna, Naramata, Okanagan Falls, Golden Mile and Black Sage/Osoyoos. What better way to enjoy these exciting newcomers than by shooting fresh oysters at the BC Shellfish Growers Association raw bar, indulging in elegant hors d’oeuvres from Chef Marta Pan, and savouring delicious Canadian cheeses?
