IceBreaker do you really want to engage me on a discussion of wine. How we make single terroir wines that are serial numbered and GPS marked to some of what is becoming some of the best terroir in the world. You better search up Okanagan Valley before you start making yourself look like a fool...
We make hermitage and Bordeaux reds in the southern part of our valley. As we move up the valley in to OK falls we build world class pinot and chardonnays one of our chardonnay vineyards won chardonnay du monde. Once your in Penticton we switch to Alsatian varietals and styles.
I'm down for putting up my 2009 Syrah Cabernet against any cote Rotie you come up with. My 2012 pinot noir same.
And if you love right bank Bordeaux... We have a 2012 Merlot starting at $65 a classic that has just come off of sommelier judging panel as one of the first BC wines to nail old world Bordeaux profile.
Edit: So Bring it on...
this kind of challenge I'm in into... We'll bring to the table some of my personal favs guys like Paul draper from ridge, Walter from hietz cellars in napa or silver oaks. See Mr IceBreaker as a sommelier I understand wine context. For example my home vineyard we specialize in wines inspired by the Loire Valley, chenin blanc and sauv blanc, with racing acidty and minerality.
