Sowing the Seeds: Can People Power Revitalize Luxton Fairgrounds?

On this week's show, we continue reporting from the 47th annual Vancouver International Wine Festival, where we caught up with Mark Hopley, Winemaker at Hester Creek Estate Winery, to discuss his exciting new release, the 2022 Undici, a Super Tuscan blend made with 61% Sangiovese. The grapes were harvested from the Osoyoos East Bench vineyard, nicknamed Vineyard Eleven, which Hopley rates 11 out of 10. The name Undici, Italian for eleven, pays homage to the vineyard's rating. Kerri McNolty, Family Owner & Vice President of Burrowing Owl Estate Winery, talks to us about Burrowing Owl's history of consistency and quality. We also explore the many ways you can visit Burrowing Owl this summer, along with its sister property, Wild Goose Winery. Jean-Marc Enixon, Winemaker at Phantom Creek Estates, joins us with his 2020 Petite Cuvée and 2022 Estate Riesling, sharing insights into the viticulture and winemaking practices employed at the South Okanagan showpiece winery's various vineyards. Additionally, we chat with Mike Dowell, Owner of Liber Estates in Oliver, BC, and Gustav Allander, Winemaker and Vineyard Manager, about their new releases coming out this spring.
