ISLAND
Whales, wilderness and wine.

On your short and scenic ferry trip to this island of history and romance you
may be accompanied by magnificent orcas, playful otters and mischievous
gulls. Your destination is one of the most rugged and unspoiled parts
of Canada and the home of a new breed of winemakers. The typical Island
winery is a family-based operation displaying a passion for turning grapes into
good times. The inland Cowichan Valley and southeastern Saanich Peninsula
provide a variety of conditions perfect for experimentation and the growing and
nurturing of an eclectic array of sought-after labels.
Look for varietals including Pinot Noir, Merlot, Ortega and Chardonnay.

GULF ISLANDS
A ferry-tale adventure.
Their names read like wine labels. Salt Spring, Pender, Saturna, Quadra and
Hornby. British Columbias Gulf Islands lie in the Georgia Strait that separates
Vancouver Island from the mainland and are connected by a network of small
ferries. The residents reflect a simpler time when help was as near as a neighbour;
hopefully one with an unopened bottle and corkscrew. This timeless attitude
carries over to the unique varieties of the region; wines that appeal more to the
palate than to pretence. This wine-producing region brings tradition, enduring
values and passion to the shared pleasures of fine wines and good friends.
Look for varietals including Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Chardonnay.
FRASER
VA L L E Y
Heres to the rural life.

The Fraser Valley is Vancouvers backyard; a rural paradise stretching for nearly
a hundred miles from the west coast and one of the worlds most spectacular cities.
The Valley oers an unforgettable look into a thriving agricultural community.
Over half of the provinces agricultural activity is centred here and includes
vineyards dedicated to some of the most popular and acclaimed wine labels.
In the time since the rst Fraser Valley winery opened in 1991, local growers have
developed and nurtured a region especially suited to early-ripening varietals.
Look for varietals including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Germanic white grapes.
OKANAGAN
VA L L E Y
Where the sun comes to play.

The Coastal and Monashee mountain ranges shelter the Okanagan Valley from wet weather
and create hot and dry, top-down summers. Long daylight hours lead to prolonged photosynthesis
and late ripening while gentle winds and the magnificent Okanagan Lake moderate a harsh winter.
The roads connecting the laid-back cities and towns within the area are as full of pleasant surprises
as the wines they bring you to, from vintners who respect tradition without blindly following it.
The Okanagan Valley is an ever-changing panorama stretching over 250 kilometres across
ten distinct sub-regions, each with different soil and climate conditions suited to a growing
range of varietals.
Look for varietals from Pinots and Chardonnays to Syrah and Zinfandel.

SIMILKAMEEN
VA L L E Y
A river runs through it.

The spectacular Similkameen Valley is bordered by steep mountains extending
from west of the Okanagan Valley to the United States border. Back in the 1800s,
the river running through it gave up gold to eager prospectors. Today the
Valleys treasure is found in fertile land and a climate perfect for the production
of wines as fine as any in the world. The Cathedral Mountains hold the daytime
heat and temper the coolness that descends with the night. Exceptional varietals
are nurtured by rich gravel and silt loam formed from glacial rock.
Look for varietals including Merlot, Gamay Noir, Cabernet Franc and Chardonnay
along with some very fine Rieslings and Gewrztraminers.
