This is some of our most promising Sauvignon Blanc ever … I am very excited to see the wine we produce from this. It will be a wine that will tell a story. #similkameenwine #wildferment.
Scenes from #SauvignonBlanc harvest this week. From our certified organic Les Collines vineyard, on a very rocky site against the mountain, harvest was beautiful. Intense, concentrated fruit, destined for #closdusoleil flagship white Capella—a showcase of real terroir expression!

Celebrated #CanadaDay with a 2016 @ClosduSoleil Beton. Drinking beautifully and still lots of life ahead of it. We don’t make a Beton (concrete fermented & concrete aged) every year, but maybe we should? I’m very pleased with it. #bcwine #similkameenwine

Very interesting interview! A lot of what is said I don’t like (though what I “like” is irrelevant) and some things I disagree with, but all is very thought-provoking and interesting.
Fun wide-ranging interview w/ Joe Allen at the SF AI Summit, touching on the geopolitics of the path to Singularity, along with the birth of Sophia, the spirituality of Singularity, and a bunch more. .

Always a pleasure to host Allison and Chris @allison_wallace at #ClosduSoleil !.
Set against the dramatic beauty of the Similkameen Valley, @ClosduSoleil isn’t just making wine, they’re making a statement. After sitting down with winemaker @MikeClark_CdS we found out why it deserves its place among BC’s best: #wine #bcwine
