Favorite Wineries

While in the Oliver area and my son was busy at camp during the day, Brent and I had some time to ourselves to go and sample some of the wine from the region. Here are two wineries that I enjoyed. The first was burrowing owl- it's wines were ok, I liked the place because in D's grade one class- we adopted a burrowing owl, as a class. But what was more astonishing was the resort you could stay at here. (For approx.$300/night.) It would be so tranquil, relaxing and not crowded as you can imagine. Oh, to be rich.



Now for my new favourite wine. Gehringer Brothers Wines. May I recommend (being the wine connoisseur I am) the Auxerrois (white wine.) Tasty, tasty !!! Brent and I debated on whether to get one or two bottles, it was that appealing to us.
While waiting for Brent and Dawson to arrive in Kelowna, I went to the Grey Monk Winery and picked up some average inexpensive red wine too. Now, I just need some good company to come and enjoy a glass of wine with us!
