Default BC Wines-Canada

On the sparkling wine is was a Sumac Ridge...it was very nice.

Reisling was Mt. Boucherie Estate.

The Pinot Noir was Inniskillin Okanigan BC. Very nice and reasonable price.

Brought a little of each home with me.

Also brought a few Ice Wines to try but did not have.

Had the above with Dinner at the Harold Street Cafe. It was great food also.
