Maybe it was the fact I was drinking this with good friends at the cabin on the water but I found this reall enjoyable. Very refreshing and solid structure. Good balance and acidity. Probably the best Riesling in BC.

Definitely the best Riesling the Okanagan valley has to offer. Sharp acidity, but as the an employee at the vineyard said "We are not afraid to show the real nature of Riesling". For 22$-23$ it offers an amazing value.

Outstanding as always! A twinge off dry, this wine is complex, aromatic, and has notes of grapefruit, quince, apple-lime juice and a good cut of minerality. Drinking quite well now, but could be interesting in a few years. And for $22 a bottle, a pretty impressive value at that.
