This week's podcast spotlights Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher, former Wall Street Journal columnists and founders of Open That Bottle Night, who join us to discuss why all of us tend to hold onto wines we own that we should have opened years ago and what to do about it. From Penticton, British Columbia, Master of Wine Geoffrey Moss, principal of Lithica Wine Marketing, offers an update on the releases of the 2024 and now 2025 replacement wines and what we can expect from local producers. David McBean, general manager of the Watermark Beach Resort in Osoyoos, returns for a spring update on what they are preparing to offer visitors at the Watermark and 15 Park Bistro this year. Finally, we are joined by the star storyteller Jane Ferrari, of Jane Ferrari Consulting Pty Ltd (Jim Barry Wines), for a masterclass on the famed Barossa Valley region, located in South Australia, a short drive from Adelaide.

B.C. Food And Wine Radio: Feb 25, 2026

Meteorologist from The Weather Network Doug Gillham joined Josh & Jade to break down B.C.’s strange winter.
Why the South Coast missed out on real cold and snow, how late‑February finally brought a return to normal, and what early spring might look like. He also explained why the alpine snowpack is still strong across most of the province, how that could rescue the ski season, and what a sudden warm, dry turn in May could mean for flood risk.
