Join us to launch Wet February!

​Some of you have been patiently exercising admirable self-control for Dry January, so why not mark the end of the month with some fine BC wine. Come out and join us for our Break Your Resolutions Party! We’re ready to get you sipping some of the finest “one-offs” in our cellar. Our Cellarmaster has spent copious hours examining our cellar inventory to pick wines that are unique, special,  one-of-a-kind delights. Check out some of the wines being poured:

• Tantalus 2015 Blanc de Noir Sparkling
• Wild Goose 2014 Mystic River Gewurztraminer
• Ruby Blues 2014 Viognier
• 50th Parallel 2013 Chardonnay
• La Frenz 2017 Limited Edition Pinot Noir Rose
• Quails' Gate 2017 Lucy's Block Rose
• The View 2017 Pinotage Rose
• Howling Bluff 2013 Three Mile Vineyard Pinot Noir
• Stoneboat 2013 Pinot Noir
• Poplar Grove 2010 Merlot
• Laughing Stock 2009 Syrah
• Hester Creek 2011 Reserve Cabernet Franc
• Poplar Grove 2011 Cabernet Franc
• Covert Farms 2013 Amicitia Red

As we have limited quantities of each bottle, we’re setting up three tables with eight wines each. You can choose four wines from each table for 12 samples, as usual. Don’t worry - everyone will have a fantastic tasting! We’ll make sure that each table has a broad selection of fabulous wines to try. As the guest list grows so too will the number of wines, we have more lonely singles in the cellar looking for love!

Also, what better place to have an intimate walk-around than the Water Street Cafe. The Cafe is very graciously offering a three-course fixed menu for BCWAS members and their guests who would like to come in for dinner before the event - all for just $35!

Please call the Cafe directly to make a reservation: 604-689-2832. Don’t forget to mention that you are with the BCWAS group!

​(Note: Plan on seating for dinner no later than 6pm in order to finish on time for our tasting.)

​Sound interesting? Book now and get in on closing “Dry January” for 2019! It’s reasonably inexpensive for what you’re going to get and above all - think about it – you’ll have the chance to delight your palate with a wine that you may never see again. We hope to see you there!
