Join us for an unforgettable evening where the vibrant wine regions of New Zealand and British Columbia converge in the heart of Kelowna. We are thrilled to host Jamie Marfell, acclaimed winemaker from Stoneleigh in New Zealand, alongside two of our finest local BC winemakers.

This exclusive event offers a rare opportunity to indulge in a curated selection of wines, each expertly paired with a 4-course dinner crafted by the talented Chef Tina Tang.

The winemakers will guide you through cool climate enology, NZ similarities, and differences with BC, viticulture practices and a discussion on global climate change. It’s a unique experience perfect for wine lovers and foodies alike.
