Introducing BC’s Newest Winery: Chapter Estates Winery Have you heard about the Fraser Valley's latest winery opening?  I attended the soft opening of Chapter Estates Winery, located in the Langley area.  They have a vineyard at the winery, plus a restaurant so you can enjoy wine and food.  A great way to have a weekday or weekend escape.  Here is some background information about the winery, my review of the wines I tasted, and a few food and wine pairings I enjoyed.

VanWineFest 2026: An Interview with Evan Saunders from BC’s Blasted Church Vineyards Amidst the clamour of the Vancouver International Wine Festival, I had a conversation with Evan Saunders, winemaker for Blasted Church Vineyards, to discuss the last two years vintages; one made with WA state grapes in 2024, and the latest vintage with estate BC grapes.  The 2024 Washington Intervention Following a 2023 season that already saw significantly diminished yields, 2024 arrived with even more severe winter challenges, leaving the winery’s estate crops in a state of near-total loss.

Women Staking Their Claim In BC Wine Winemaking in the past has been dominated by men around the world, but times are changing.  British Columbia is a great example.  If you've ever cracked open a bottle of BC wine, there is a high probability that it was made by a female winemaker and/or the winery is female owned. Estimates suggest about 20% of lead winemakers in the Okanagan are women, with somewhat lower percentages in other BC wine regions according to…

B.C. wineries press premiers to allow direct wine sales across the country Premiers last year signed an MOU agreeing to work toward an interprovincial free trade agreement by May

Canada's premiers signed an MOU last year to work toward allowing Canadian wineries to sell direct to consumers countrywide.
The push is on to keep them to that pledge.

Three BC VQA wines for a perfect three-course pairing Wine and food can be a lot like love. Either opposites attract and things go “wow” or you feel warm, comfy and at home because you are both so much alike. Both can offer great harmony.

The right #foodandwine pairing can turn any dinner into something unforgettable. Currently feeling inspired by this beautiful 3-course #BCWine dinner from Lakehouse Kitchens Cooking School, featuring #ClosduSoleil Celestiale 2022 & Beef Wellington.
