Nic and I headed to Oliver for Canada Day to celebrate with our friends Colleen and Jason. I'm too lazy to put this images in chronological order so working backwards here are the pictures.
Last stop is Bench 1775. Nice views to be had.
Colleen would be our driver and wine consultant on 2 trips into town. This is Morraine Winery in Naramata.
Maybe the best part of the trip for me was finally being able to play Viticulture with more than just my wife.
The new wine village in Oliver seemed to be over packed even though not all the kiosks were open. Wineries have very much become part of the culture in the south okanagan. People like to live the high life, but who can blame them.
Wine tasting a Road 13.
Smoke from the fires around BC gave the sky an eerie glow.
No charge for tasting Wines at Rust in Oliver, and they had some of the better wines.
Stop number one was at Dirty Laundry winery in Summerland. Self serve is not my thing but I guess with the Pandemic winding down some safety measures are still in place. For what they charge I hope its not their norm.
BC wines have a ways to go I think, especially the Reds. But still worth the drive.
