This week's show comes to you from the patio at 15 Park Bistro at the Watermark Beach Resort in Osoyoos. We speak with General Manager David McBean about how this South Okanagan resort continues to renew its Food, Beverage and Hospitality programs each year, seeking small but steady incremental gains. Mike Dowell, Owner of Liber Estates, and Gustav Allander, Winemaker/Vineyard Manager, stop by to taste their wines with Anthony, including the refreshing Liber Estates 2025 Sauvignon Blanc Organic and 2025 Sémillon. Visiting from the Similkameen Valley is Charlie Baessler, Managing Partner at Corcelettes Estate Winery. Charlie reports that their vineyards are buzzing with excitement, including a highly successful straw mulching program that is improving the health of their Similkameen soils. Charlie brings two wines to taste: a 2022 Traditional Method Sparkling wine made from Pinot Gris, and their 2024 Cascadia Collection-Phoenix Syrah Rosé. Also visiting from the Similkameen is Michael Clark, Managing Director & Winemaker at Clos du Soleil Winery, which is celebrating its 20th Anniversary this year. Michael speaks to their anniversary winemaker dinners and the wines' ageability. We taste the Fumé Blanc 2025 and the 2016 Estate Reserve Red. Michael Bartier, General Manager and Co-Owner of Bartier Bros. Vineyards, brings two wines to showcase, including his 2025 Sauvignon Blanc and 2025 Rosé. Michael extends a special invitation for all to visit their welcoming tasting room, sunny patio, courtyard and bocce court, where visitors can enjoy vineyard views.
