This week's show comes to you from the deck at Poplar Grove Winery on the Naramata Bench, British Columbia. Our guests include Owner Tony Holler and General Manager Chris Holler. We discuss the quality of the just-released 2025 vintage and taste their flagship white, the 2025 Pinot Gris. We also open the Poplar Grove 2025 Rosé, a Double Gold "Best In Class" winner at the Pacific Rim International Wine Competition. Foxtrot Vineyards winemaker Jacq Kemp joins the conversation with positive news about new ownership. We also sample the 2020 Foxtrot Blanc de Noir Sparkling Wine and the 2022 Waltz Pinot Noir. Anahita Pouget, Director of Brand Development and Marketing at Evolve Sparkling House on the Naramata Bench, stops by to welcome everyone to the one-of-a-kind sparkling facility this Spring and Summer. We taste a couple of impressive wines made by winemaker Lynzee Schatz, including the 2025 Light Sparkles and 2018 Brut Libre. Finally, we catch up with nearby Naramata Bench winemaker/GM Garron Elmes of Lake Breeze Winery, who joins us to pour his noted 2025 Pinot Blanc and the 2022 Pinot Noir. Plus, he's inviting you to book lunch at the Lake Breeze Patio Restaurant.
