An aspiring wine geek who lives in the beautiful Okanagan region of British Columbia, Canada. I love my NFL and Seahawks.

@GeeScottSr And you wish the Hawks came back in 24 with Waldron, Hurt and Carroll....Time for a change and thankfully ownership stepped in...Stuck in mediocrity since 2015!

2016 @mfvwines Reimer Vineyard

Super soft on the palate with tons of depth.

This was the last vintage they had in this East Kelowna vineyard before handing the keys back to the Reimers who now have their own brand @mirabelwine

NKOTB alert - Welcome to the #ifyoudontlikerieslingyoureafuckingidiot club.

@frindwinery stepping to the dancefloor with their 2018 Riesling at 10.8 ABV.
I enjoy dry Rieslings which many are doing in BC but love some added sugar too 😎

Super clean … https://t.co/7iUqcjKdmZ

Brilliant balanced, single vineyard Mourvedre from Snipes Mountain in WA state.

Theres a reason people keep talking about @latta_wines folks.
Small case production but every single wine is a beauty.

Looking forward to bringing the father in law with me… https://t.co/vyTxFATVFv

Was a Latta fanboy after having the 2013 GSM a couple of years ago...This portfolio is absolutely unreal!
Roussanne, Syrah, Grenache, Mourvedre, Malbec and a GSM.
The branding is spot on with the white labels, vintage, varietal, vineyard and cool red fon… https://t.co/tVsF6Bd2Ud

@jayess02 @PaintedRockWine @staghollow @BlastedChurch @wildgoosewines You started with the passive/aggressive shot at them...Do all restaurants, vehicles, hotels all charge the same rates/fees? Anyways you get the picture..Was simply ignorant to call out a business owner on how they conduct their biz...As for awards...yeah, I will leave that alone.

Every year this Bordeaux blend delivers!

@exnihilovineyards Night is almost always the crowd favourite for red wine fanatics who visit.
Been a brutal few weeks at the day job so needed to indulge in this youthful 2016 stunner.

A brute from Bierzo💣

At first sniffy sniff I woulda guessed a BoJo Cru from say Moulin-A-Vent but no it's a Mencia from Northwest Spain.

This was an absolute beauty which simply makes your palate wanna dance with blistering acidity, super chewy tan… https://t.co/dPK8D5n9lK

@exnihilovineyards is changing the game this year👍

This was the epicurean food and wine pairing for $25 that was worth every dollar...Chef Jeff is a ridiculous artist and each one of these bites was an explosion of flavour😲

Art in a bottle 👊

Hoping to see more of this in the Okanagan as it becomes more prevalent in California.

Another epic 15% bomb from Adrian Cassini 💣💣💣 He loves hammering his juice with oak and this beauty is no different.
