Today was a holiday Monday, so M and I did a little vineyard exploration and found a lovely winery restaurant and a good bottle of wine.
Lunch was delicious, the view was fantastic and we were rewarded with a gaggle of wild roses (also known as sweet briar roses) as we left the grounds. It was a good day.
It had just rained, and the scent from these roses was heavenly.
Happy Tuesday.
The Okanagan wineries have been very, very busy with harvesting and a careful monitoring of temperatures and heat units. This winery near Osoyoos was in the middle of some observation, likely regarding the progress of this particular field.
Happy Wednesday.
It was a bit hazy (at least not from wildfire smoke!) but there was still a great view down through the southern Okanagan Valley to Lake Osoyoos and the U.S. border from a winery we like to visit.
Although somewhat overcast, the weather was nice, quite comfortable and the view fantastic.
Happy Friday; happy weekend.
A few days ago, we took a very pleasant trip to a great winery we know called Fairview. Here’s the view from the covid-safe patio.
We sipped, chatted with the owner, and lazed. It was very hot outside …
… but that’s really good for the grapes.
Have a good week. 🙂
