So happy to be part of the @spearheadwinery wine club family! Congrats to @spearheadwinery on all your recent accolades and for a phenomenal tasting today! A huge thanks to @jjhorsey10 for taking such great care of us and signing us up to the wine club! So excited!!

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@jjhorsey10 That's awesome news. I've been a fan of @spearheadwinery for a very long time and it is a must stop for us whenever we are in town. I look forward to seeing you there! Congratulations... you'll be a great addition to their team!! 🎉

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@jjhorsey10 He is adorable. I hope you are doing okay.

@HugeWineR I actually had someone stop a tasting this summer so they could get me a more knowledgeable person to answer my questions and I was blown away! The new staff member was so happy to geek out with me and I got a better experience. Was perfect. #BCWineChat

Q6: provide front-end staff with the tools they need to adapt to consumers with varying degrees of wine knowledge to enhance the experience for everyone. #bcwinechat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@fergnclaud @SandraOldfield I totally agree with this... and offer drinking window / cellaring info more readily. #BCWineChat

Q5: Finally got up to the Thompson Valley region and had some really nice tastings. I think a region with a lot of potential. Haven't been out to the Island but really really want to get out to some wineries there... one day! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@paulrickett @8th_Generation Agreed. They did well on the design. I think I may actually prefer this clean and simple design more than the original bottles. Very elegant. #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

Q3 - Definitely increased online purchases and direct shipping rather than just at cellar door. Plus, we may have joined a few more wine clubs!!! 😊 #BCWineChat

Q2: Depends on food for me perhaps more than the weather. Rose definitely comes out at Thanksgiving and Christmas with turkey dinner. So, I'm all over the map I suppose! #bcwinechat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@busyblonde @ZWineNinja @jjhorsey10 100%!! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

A#1 (part 2): I also got to meet some amazing folks on here this summer including @ZWineNinja and @jjhorsey10... both who made our tastings off the chart sensational!!! Thank you both!! #BCWineChat

A1: Amazing tasting at #littleenginewines and Scott (winemaker) happened to be around and sat with us and gave a tour of their new facilities. Was a great experience. #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@UrquhartMP Oh my god... thanks for sharing this. I seriously needed that laugh! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@paulrickett @CBeaton1 That's so funny - I'm the exact opposite. I want cold and crisp - high acid, low alcohol and dry. Just goes to show how much personal preference is a big part of wine!! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@HugeWineR @vania_pacheco I had a double Pfizer and second was a bit worse than the first but honestly just a day or so of feeling a bit off and a sore arm. SOOOO worth it... mentally, physically... just feel like a load has been taken off! Good luck!! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@jrock5158 @CBeaton1 @corcelettes @winemakers_cut The @corcelettes Oracle is consistently lovely. And I had a bottle of the 2020 @winemakers_cut Rose this past week and it was sensational. I highly recommend both! #BCWineChat

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

@HugeWineR @PaintedRockJohn Oh that's exciting to hear! Glad we already have a bottle... might have to pick up another bottle this summer!

[Diane D @WineDiva2]

Got my 2nd vaccine shot... fully vaxxed baby! Celebrating with a glass of @winemakers_cut 2020 Rosé.. a lovely blend of Cabernet Franc & Syrah. A beautiful light salmon colour in the glass & crisp, fruity and slightly peppery on the palate. Perfect wine to celebrate! #BCWineChat
