December 19th, 2020- Kurtis Kolt & The Wine Diva with Outstanding Bottles and Bubbles
Summary: Kurtis Kolt & The Wine Diva with Outstanding Bottles and Bubbles<br> <br> THE SHOW <br> <br> As the Holidays get closer I’ve always found myself drawing closer to friends. It’s never planned, it just happens.<br> It may be because of shared experiences and moments or flat out long time friendships.<br> Whateverrrrr!<br> I sent out two invites this week. One to Kurtis Kolt.<br> Vancouver based wine consultant, occasional writer for VanMag, a wine educator and top tier Wine Judge.<br> And a friend.<br> I asked if he would bring with him a list of wines that impressed him over the year and that could be found at most BC Liquor Stores.<br> Kurtis said Yes. He Suggested 4 Whites – One Pink – 4 Reds. Something for everyone. Please find the list below..<br> I also wanted to ask Kurtis about the state of BC Restaurants and Wineries in 2020 and how we can help both in 2021.<br> <br> Domaine Martin Jund Edelzwicker – Alsace, France, $31.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/15782">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/15782</a><br> <br> Pewsey Vale Eden Valley 2018 Riesling – Eden Valley, Australia, $19.99 LTO til January 2, $21.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/617126">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/617126</a><br> <br> Anthonij Rupert Wines Protea Chenin Blanc – Western Cape, South Africa, $14.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/777953">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/777953</a><br> <br> Bartier Bros. 2019 Semillon, Okanagan Valley, B.C., $16.97 LTO til January 2, $19.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/245910">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/245910</a><br> <br> Domaine Lafond Roc Epine 2018 Tavel, Rhône Valley, France, $27.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/110411">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/110411</a><br> <br> Tenuta Castellaro Ypsilon Rosso, Sicily, Italy, $35.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/143498">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/143498</a><br> <br> Robin Ridge 2018 Gamay, Similkameen Valley, BC, $22.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/484907">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/484907</a><br> <br> Marchesi Di Barolo 2014 Barolo, Piedmont, Italy, $59.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/378729">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/378729</a><br> <br> Langmeil Valley Floor 2017 Shiraz, Barossa Valley, Australia, $30.99 LTO til January 2, $34.99<br> <a href="https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/564450">https://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/564450</a><br> <br> Thank You Kurtis<br> @Kurtis Kolt<br> <a href="https://www.mooncurser.com/Wine-Club"></a><br> The second friend I reached out to was Daenna Van Mulligen – The Wine Diva<br> <br> If you’ve heard Daenna on TRR over the years you’ll know that she LOVES her Bubble.<br> So when Daenna said Yes, I focused on an end of the year/gift giving Best Bubble List.
