Time to Taste a Bargain Blend from Chile!


 This time we taste a wine  (2023 Long Country)   that's a real bargain - just 13 bucks for a litre - from the Central Valley of Chile. It's a great deal, but is it a great wine? After watching the video, why not book a tour in the Okanagan for this summer with this link

Time to Taste a Special Wine from Madiran, France


Madiran is a wine region in South West France in Gascony. The wines there usually have the Tannat grape in the mix. Tannat is a rich, bold, and somewhat tannic grape that makes a wine that is perfect for a special occasion! This producer makes a wonderful wine, a 2017 Brumont Chateau Montus, often referred to as the Petrus of the South West.

Time for a Splurge from Bordeaux!



 This time we taste a Margaux wine from Chateau Tayac from the Bordeaux wine region. This is a less extracted, softer Bordeaux wine but still packs a lot of flavour. It is the ideal wine for a splurge!
