The Week In Review

Anthony is in Barcelona and the Duoro Valley this week and Treve is in Chablis, after a week in Lisbon.

We'll still be posting new tasting notes and stories while we're away. If you haven't visited us in a while, please have a look at our latest videos featuring British Columbian wineries. See three very different approaches, yet a common, growing, enthusiasm for making wines that are from B.C. and nowhere else: Clos du Soleil, The Hatch, Phantom Creek Estates. If you are looking to support the Californian wine industry after devasting fires there, please visit our recent California Top Ten List and add some of them to your shopping list. While you're there, take a look at our top ten list of one of Canada's star grapes, riesling. We invite you to join us on Facebook, it's the soonest you'll be notified when new stories and lists are posted to this website. It's also where you can find exclusive content and give us your feedback. Follow us on Instagram to see what we're tasting and who we're visiting.
