B.C. Food And Wine Radio: Oct 15, 2025

On this week's show, we are on-location at Unsworth Vineyards in the Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island. Joining us is Nick Bevan, President of Jackson Wine Estates International. We talk about the new winery & tasting room: how that raises the profile of Cowichan and the belief and investment of a prominent wine family into helping to build a world class wine region. As well we catch up with Dan Wright, Winemaker, Unsworth Vineyards, and Chris Turyk, Sales & Marketing Director to talk about Sparkling wine, along with current releases and a fall release of the 2024 Pinot Blanc. We will also dig deep into the unique characteristics of the terroir, and find out how Unsworth is farming regeneratively and sustainably in the Cowichan Valley.
