Wine Wednesday & For The Rest Of The #VIWF Week

One of toughest things about wine is figuring out what I want to try in the first place. Everyone wants the β€œgood wine,” but what does that even mean? That's when wine tastings come in handy. To discover the wines that are dedicated to the daily drinkers, the ones best reserved for special occasions, and then those that fall somewhere in between. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to attend VanWineFest this year where I'll be bringing you options across the entire spectrum and from around the world.

 
 

The 39th Vancouver International Wine Festival is in full swing from now till Sunday night. This means 8 days dedicated to showcase 1,700 wines by 180 wineries from 16 countries at 54 events. 

 
 

On Monday, we kicked off the week with Canadian-inspired bites prepared by JOEY executive chef Chris Mills, and wines from across the country.
