July 15, 2015: Pinot Gris in BC

HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:

Pinot Gris in BC 

There’s a lot of Pinot Gris in BC and it is a hot seller! This week’s #BCWineChat we will discuss anything you want to about the variety including who’s making it (or easier to do is to discuss who’s NOT making it), pricing, food pairings with it, what flavour profiles it has in various locations in BC and anything else you choose.

It’s an “all Gris all the time” kind of chat.

November 12, 2014: BC Grape Acreage Report

HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:

2014 BC Grape Acreage Report 

Every other year the BC grape acreage report is released letting producers, growers and consumers know what varieties are grown in what areas of our province and in what amounts. It is always a very interesting read and quite often point to trends for our BC wine industry and that’s what we will be discussing this week.

It promises to be a great discussion for geeks and non geeks alike!
