I’ve been tasting a shipment of wines from Bordertown Vineyards & Estate Winery at home in Vancouver, but since I was in Osoyoos, I thought I would visit the winery and taste a few of the wines that were not sent to me.  I tried two white wines and two red wines.  Let me tell you about them.

My Wine Tasting Notes
