Winetastng Vancouver

by Sue Courtney » Wed Jul 03, 2013 2:22 am

Had a change of plan and now going to spend more time in Vancouver than originally intended.
Not sure how close any wineries are but would love to go to a wine club tasting or some such thing.
I go to a wine store tasting here every week in Auckland. Normally taste 12 wines blind for a cost of $15.
Love blind tasting as no preconceptions from the label and it's guess the varietal too.
Would love to see if there is anything similar around.

Sorry, there is nothing like that in Vancouver. :(

If you could provide dates, maybe the local Vancouver posse could arrange an offline? I'm away a lot this summer and fall, but may be around!

Yeah, let Jenise and I know and we can put together something.

John - when are you going to be around? Want to get you into one of my regular lunches when you are here.

Bill, I'll be around until July 19, then away again until early September, I'm afraid. Are there any events before the 19th?
