Chef Reuben Major and Sandor Mayer of Inniskillin Okanagan Vineyard at Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival Launches in Vancouver
It’s that time of the year again, when the Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival opens 30,000 bottles of wine.
I helped by attending the media launch this afternoon at Earls Restaurant in Vancouver and doing my duty to taste some of the wine on offer. It’s the least I can do.
The theme this year is BC wines, surprisingly the first time this province has been featured in the Vancouver-based festival.
Today we sipped wines from Inniskillin Okanagan Vineyards, paired with Earls’ Chef Reuben Major’s creations.
My favourite was the Discovery Series Malbec ($25.04 CAD in liquor stores). I’m a big fan of malbec wines (starting before it became trendy to be, I might add!), so I knew I’d like this one.
