The Great Canadian Wine Exchange – B.C. Black Case
Discover the Premium wines of British Columbia
To help support the winery communities across Canada at this time, we have carefully selected an exceptional ‘Black’ case of premium wines from British Columbia for a special price of $593/case plus delivery. Delivery fees are estimated at $25 in Ontario (shipping locations & fees). The case is expected to ship in late May 2020.
WineAlign partner David Lawrason handled the final curation of the B.C. Black Case and had this to say about it:
In the past twenty years the B.C. wine industry has seen fantastic growth, from 60 wineries in 2000 to almost 300 in 2020. Most of the new wineries are relatively small, with investment by individuals from Vancouver and Alberta. In the last five years the scale of a few new mega-projects has become dazzling, some based on investment from outside Canada. Recently Canada’s largest wine companies have also poured investment into B.C., purchasing and upgrading some smaller wineries. The Okanagan in particular is starting to resemble Napa Valley in California in terms of magnificent wineries and restaurants.
It is wine quality however that is driving that growth and spreading the reputation far and wide. The quality is a direct reflection of much improved viticulture that interprets the geography, and technical expertise in the wineries – both fuelled by highly trained winemakers flocking to this new frontier from abroad, and from Canadian colleges and universities. They are drawn by the sense of frontier adventure, and living in a great region (and country) but they quickly discover that B.C. is a land of can-do spirit and a hotbed of innovation.
The B.C. Black Case captures this collective experience and excitement with a range of excellent wines – in particular those big reds – that impress with their breadth and depth, some to enjoy now others to tuck away in the cellar.
