My journey to complete my WSET level 2 and my WSET 3 certifications was populated with many tastings and bottles of fine wine. In the older posts, read about my journey in this blog that featured wines in both of the courses. Now that I have completed my WSET 3, I now use this as a place to review and talk about different wines that I am currently drinking as well as wineries that I visit in my new role as a private Wine Tour Guide.

Time to Taste a Chateauneuf-du-Pape wine from the Southern Rhone of France
This time we try a 2022 Domaine Clef de Saint Thomas Pierre Troupel Chateauneuf-du-Pape from the Southern Rhone. This wine comes from a very famous region of France and the wine is a bit of a splurge but is also a wonderful blend that is perfect for a special occasion.

Time to Taste a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
This time we try a Sauv Blanc from Marlborough in New Zealand. Some Sauv Blancs from this area tend to taste a bit like lemonade - but not this 2023 Aronui Sauvignon Blanc!
After you've watched the vide, why not book a tour this summer to taste Okanagan Sauvignon Blanc!
