This week, the episode comes to you from the patio at 15 Park Bistro, within Watermark Beach Resort in Osoyoos. We chat with General Manager David McBean about their distinctive Wine Passport, special events, and the Watermark Wine Series. Jesse Harnden, General Manager of Rust Winery, visits with samples of the new Alsace-inspired 2025 White Crush and the 2025 Rust Cabernet Franc, a pure Cabernet Franc from Okanagan Falls. Jesse discusses their artist-inspired labels and the upcoming summer event series featuring live music and gourmet food. Roger Gillespie, Director of Operations at Hester Creek Winery, joins us to discuss their 2025 releases, including the 2025 Hester Creek Viognier. We also taste the recently released 2022 Undici, a unique blend of 61% Sangiovese, 19% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, and 1% Malbec. Roger invites everyone to enjoy special winery events, including estate lunches, harvest festivals, and live music on the patio. Next, we welcome Audrey Enixon, who recently opened her brick-and-mortar bakehouse, La Levainière by Audrey, at the District Wine Village in Oliver. Her famous sourdough breads ferment for 24 to 74 hours, using 100% Canadian flours, including Fieldstone Organics' whole wheat and rye, which she mills herself. This charming addition to the Village reflects Audrey’s passion and has gained a devoted following since she baked her first sourdough loaf in a Dutch oven in 2016. Finally, Geoffrey Moss, Master of Wine and owner of Lithica Wine Marketing in Penticton, BC, joins us for an in-person discussion. Anthony and Geoffrey share candid insights into today’s wine culture, as well as the joys and challenges of winery ownership.
