A welcome long weekend of wine

The Week In Review

We've just published a Canada Day article summarizing all the things we've been up to here at GOW over the past couple of weeks.

We've just published a Canada Day article summarizing all the things we've been up to here at GOW over the past couple of weeks. We've also taken a look back at the first half of 2016, with a list of the top 25 Canadian wines we've reviewed this year for the site, all scored 90 points and above. After the long weekend, I head down to Oregon and the Willamette Valley for the International Terroir Congress, and then to Seattle, Washington for Riesling Rendezvous. Meanwhile, Anthony will be tabulating the results for the National Wine Awards of Canada and clearing the tasting room decks of a few dozen wines before heading back to the Okanagan Valley. As always, you can follow along on Twitter and Instagram.
