Compensation for missing Wine Fest today. Oh so scrumptious Sheridan Chardonnay flowing with vanilla yoghurt, pear and citrus peel. Creamy goodness. #sheridanwinery #chardonnay #yakima #washingtonwine #delicious #labelleblonde #decadent

Love this CNDP Blanc ! Vivid acidity balanced with seductively rich quince, pear and spice. #jaksliquor #cndp #cndpblanc #rhonewhite #combesdearneval #richwhites

Some wines you just can’t help but wax on about and this is one of them ! The 2015 Olivier Leflaive Meursault...vibrant acidity but showing quite developed in aromas. Loads of hazelnut ! Yup I’m bring this to my desert island ! #meursault #olivierleflaive #burgundy
Once again a fantastic visit to Quails” Gate last week. The Rosemary Block Chardonnay is definitely a favourite ! Angular and young with a racy thread of acidity , beautifully balanced with French oak. #chardonnay #quailsgatewinery #okanaganwine #BCWine
