May 1, 2013: Wine Clubs: Are You a Member? Why/Why Not?
HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:
Wine Clubs: Are you a Member? Why/Why Not?
Wine clubs in BC. Do you belong to one? Why? Do you have questions about how they work? If you belong to one what do you get that makes it unique over purchasing the wine without being a club member? Do you belong to other clubs outside of British Columbia?
A multitude of things we can discuss about BC wine clubs so uncork or unscrew your favourite BC wine, pull up a couch and your laptop and follow the #BCWineChat hashtag…#BCWineChat
April 3, 2013: BC Riesling!
HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:
One of the best varieties in BC is Riesling–they are fresh, crisp and juicy. They are also some of the most food friendly wines that BC makes.
Get yourself a long, tall bottle of Riesling from BC (dry, off dry or sweet) and join the chat. You will, no doubt, learn a great deal–and have fun too.
March 27, 2013: Syrah!
HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:
We’re going to tweet about all things Syrah, and more specifically BC Syrah. Come with questions about the variety (also called Shiraz), its growing conditions, areas of BC that are well suited for it, wine styles and whether you think it is a BC star varietal or not.
If you don’t come with questions, come with answers because there are a lot of people out there that would love to find out more about this varietal. Pull up your favourite bottle (or glass) of Syrah from BC and join in on the chat!
March 20, 2013: Live Tweet Tasting a BCWine
HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:
Tonight is a repeat of a chat we did last year and it was so successful we’d like to do it again. Just got to a store, or to your cellar (or closet), choose a BCWine and open it up from 8-9pm on Wednesday March 20.
Tweet your experience. Review it or pair it with food, discuss it’s flavours and aromas, why you chose it, the label, the winery’s story, how you go the bottle–whatever.
You’re going to love this BCWineChat!
March 13, 2013: Economic Impact of Canadian Wine Industry
HERE’S HOW THE CHAT WENT:
Economic Impact of Canadian Wine Industry
A new Economic Impact study on the Canadian Grape and Wine Industry has been made public this week and we will discuss its findings and implications for our national industry and our local BC wine industry as well.
You do not have to read this study (it is 37 pages long). There will be a few of us on the chat who have read it and can hopefully field questions. More importantly is that we start a discussion, a conversation about our BC wine industry and its importance to our province and country.
