This week's podcast features some favourite BC Wine discussions from 2025, including Michael Bartier, co-owner, winemaker, and GM of Bartier Bros. Vineyard & Winery, who talked about the bounce-back happening across the South Okanagan for grapes of all varieties. We enjoyed a poolside chat with Daniel Bibby, co-owner of Nighthawk Vineyards, a boutique family farm gate winery overlooking the scenic Green Lake Valley high above Okanagan Falls. We discussed his Nighthawk wines, their luxury tent accommodations, top-tier restaurant, and the impressive new artistic bottle labels. Keira LeFranc, winemaker and director of operations at Stag's Hollow Winery, hosted us on the deck at Stag's Hollow in Okanagan Falls. We talked about being certified sustainable, along with tasting a couple of 2022 wines, including their 2022 Tempranillo and the 2022 Renaissance Merlot. From Kaleden, B.C., Rob Hammersley, winemaker and viticulturist at Black Market Wine Company, also joined us on location to discuss their well-received new 2024 Collusion Series, including the impressive 2024 Rosé.
