THE SHOW

 

Downtown St. Catharines

Downtown St. Catharines


The Niagara Wine Festival — or Grape and Wine  as its been called — is back for its 62nd year. Over the years its kept growing  until it now takes over most of wine country..not just downtown St  Catharines. I was invited by Executive Director Kimberley Hundertmark to host a wine panel called East vs West. I discovered they weren’t talking about BC vs Ontario but regions within Niagara. As it turns out the panel never took place but I did get to Introduce The Spoons at the Friday night concert (that’s was fun) and then drove around Niagara and stopped into wineries for a taste and chat. This episode of TRR  is all about Niagara and the people who make it special. What a sensational destination. The wines just keep getting better and better..some are World Class. As a BC based wine fan, I wanted to know about several important things. How’s Niagara doing 2013? Are they now shipping wine to consumers across Canada? Now that Ontario wines are welcome in BC, which wines are available? And How Much do they like the Alberta customer ? (they like Alberta..)
