Okanagan Branch - Wine Wednesday virtual tasting event

Virtual event

Join the Okanagan Branch for Wine Wednesday - a virtual wine tasting event with Frind Estate Winery!

Erin Dietzel, Artsci’11, from Frind Estate Winery will guide alumni through a virtual wine tasting showcasing five exciting wines from this historic beachfront estate winery located in West Kelowna in the Okanagan Valley. Learn more about the winery and the blend of sustainability and advanced technology used to produce their award-winning wines.

Follow along to enjoy one featured wine, all five of them, or just to learn more about wine. For those who wish to try multiple wines, we encourage you to join with guests and enjoy the wine together over a charcuterie board. For each wine, suggested pairings will be covered so that meal plans for the weekend ahead can feature any remaining open bottle(s).

Featured wines

Erin will be ready to talk about any Frind wines, and the five wines that will be featured are:

  • 2021 Viognier
  • 2022 Rosé
  • 2021 Midnight
  • 2021 The Premier Red
  • Frind Sparkling Brut

Please note that the vintages available from the winery may differ slightly from those available in store.

Participants who wish to taste along with us may purchase their wines directly from the winery or at a local store. Frind wines are available for purchase across British Columbia at Save-on Foods, Real Canadian Superstore, BC Liquor Stores, and private liquor stores. They are also featured in retailers across Alberta, and can be shipped anywhere in Canada.

 

Automated captions and a live transcript will be available during this virtual event.
