B.C. Food And Wine Radio: June 4, 2025

This week on the show, we delve into the South Okanagan with a visit to District Wine Village in Oliver. Matt Kenyon, the founder, and Mike Daley, the Director of Operations, extend an invitation to experience their collection of wineries, a restaurant, and artisan shops, all conveniently located at the northern tip of Oliver. Josie Tyabji, proprietor of Gneiss Wines, welcomes guests to sample their offerings and announces the release of their first estate vineyard, Tempranillo. Michal Mosny, owner of Winemaker’s Cut, provides tastings of elegantly crafted sparkling BC wines and introduces The Opera Room, which features non-alcoholic and low alcohol beverages. Ian Stilborn, the chef at Ward’s Wine Country Kitchen, discusses his new seasonal menu and explains how guests can enjoy his culinary creations from any patio within the village while savouring wine. Finally, Tina Dolphin, Winery Manager at One Faith Vineyards, showcases several rich Bordeaux-style red wines to illustrate the aging potential of BC wines.
