Check out yesterday’s post from BC’s wine authority, John Schreiner, on expecting more Vancouver Island wines to pour into Vancouver’s market. Averill Creek produces one of my top BC Pinot Noirs from the Cowichan Valley and I’m looking forward to trying more of their wines and the new vintages when I get back. Yes, it IS light and delicate…. Pinot Noir shouldn’t taste like over-oaked Merlot.
