Trip Advisor Review: “Best way for a wine lover to spend a day! Things I loved… Our guide was amazing, he treated us like royalty. I loved that the tour was small and personal and we got to meet the wine experts. The wine! I never knew that BC made any wine, let alone that it was so good.” – Jane from Burnaby
