Over a five-day winecation in the Okanagan (yes, we have an "official" name for our wine vacation) with our friends B&K, we visited a number of wineries, eateries and attractions in the area. One of which was TIME Winery & Kitchen in Penticton. We ended up spending 3 hours at TIME, starting with a lunch.
This year, Vancouver International Wine Festival features the wine region of California. It's impressive that the state of California alone can be the featured region. Similar to last year, instead of aimlessly drinking my way around the big tasting room, I focused on one type of wine. Since I'm not a huge chardonnay drinker, and I like Zinfandel in general, I picked out the California Zinfandel to taste.
Even though the theme region for this year's Vancouver International Wine Festival was California, there were many events featuring other wine-making countries/regions. Lucky for me I was able to attend the Gusto Latinoamericano wine lunch at Lift Bar Grill View. As you may have guessed already, this wine lunch highlighted wines from Argentina and Chile.
What is it like to be driven around in a 1952 Vintage Mercury Pickup? An experience only found at Covert Farm! It's an 1.5-hour tour on the 650-acre farm, and let me tell you all about it.
It was two years ago during our visit of Evolve Cellars, we learned from Christa-Lee that her family winery business ENCORE Vineyards had acquired the PenMar Theatre in Penticton and was converting the space into a winery. Now, we just got a sneak preview of the soon-to-open TIME Winery & Kitchen.
