Wine Country



We are big wine fans. So we finally made a point to get out and see some wineries. We decided to start with the Okanagan, since it is so perfectly made for wine and is absolutely packed with well known commercial wineries as well as small family run joints. We are on our 2nd of 4 days here in beautiful sunny Osoyoos. Our travels today took us to Jackson-Triggs, Dirty Laundry, Sleeping Giant Fruit Winery and last but not at all least, Blasted Church.
The image above is the label of one of their newest wines, called Mixed Blessings, a delicious blend of white wines. How nice would it be to serve such a quirky and appropriate wine at a wedding? We'd have loved to but with cases of 12 running at over $200, we just bought a bottle for us. Maybe we'll save it for an anniversary, or the rehearsal dinner.

  1. Dirty Laundry is my fave!!!!! I'd better be invited over when you open a bottle! It is really hard to find here. The only place I was able to get it was from the 17 Mile Pub in Sooke (Random!)
